Hi,

this is a first RFC patch of my work on data inlining, i.e. use the xfs inode's
literal area to store user's data.

This first patch just cares about write and read new files into inode's literal
area, it does not make any conversion from inline to extent or vice-versa.

The idea to send this patch to list is just to get comments about this first
work and see if anybody has some ideas/suggestions about it, mainly related
with page cache and journal handling, since it's the first time I deal with
journal and page cache handling, I'm not pretty sure if I did things right
or not.

Every comment is very appreciated.

Thanks

Looks good.

But, I guess should be --- ASSERT(i_size_read(VFS_I(ip)) <= PAGE_CACHE_SIZE);  here?
