pnfs: add flag to force read-modify-write in ->write_begin
Like all block based filesystems, the pNFS block layout driver can't read
or write at a byte granularity and thus has to perform read-modify-write
cycles on writes smaller than this granularity.
Add a flag so that the core NFS code always reads a whole page when
starting a smaller write, so that we can do it in the place where the VFS
expects it instead of doing in very deadlock prone way in the writeback
handler.
Note that in theory we could do less than page size reads here for disks
that have a smaller sector size which are served by a server with a smaller
pnfs block size. But so far that doesn't seem like a worthwhile
optimization.
