Subject[RFC PATCH] mm, netfs: Provide a means of invalidation without using launder_folio
Date
Implement a replacement for launder_folio[1].  The key feature of
invalidate_inode_pages2() is that it locks each folio individually, unmaps
it to prevent mmap'd accesses interfering and calls the ->launder_folio()
address_space op to flush it. This has problems: firstly, each folio is
written individually as one or more small writes; secondly, adjacent folios
cannot be added so easily into the laundry; thirdly, it's yet another op to
implement.

Here's a bit of a hacked together solution which should probably be moved
to mm/:

Use the mmap lock to cause future faulting to wait, then unmap all the
folios if we have mmaps, then, conditionally, use ->writepages() to flush
any dirty data back and then discard all pages. The caller needs to hold a
lock to prevent ->write_iter() getting underfoot.

Note that this does not prevent ->read_iter() from accessing the file
whilst we do this since that may operate without locking.

We also have the writeback_control available and so have the opportunity to
set a flag in it to tell the filesystem that we're doing an invalidation.
