[PATCH] Assert that pages being written back are locked

[Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org>]

From: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org>

In write_cache_pages(), we rely on PageLock to prevent writeback from
starting on locked pages.  I'm not sure if we document anywhere that pages
that we're starting writes on must be locked, but having an assertion
will make it clear to users that this is required.
