[PATCH] BLOCK: Dissociate generic_writepages() from mpage stuff [try #6]
Dissociate the generic_writepages() function from the mpage stuff, moving its declaration to linux/mm.h and actually emitting a full implementation into mm/page-writeback.c. The implementation is a partial duplicate of mpage_writepages() with all BIO references removed. It is used by NFS to do writeback.
