[RFC PATCH 7/7] block, direct-io: flip the switch: use pin_user_pages_fast()

[John Hubbard <jhubbard@nvidia.com>]

Remove CONFIG_BLK_USE_PIN_USER_PAGES_FOR_DIO, but leave the dio_w_*()
wrapper functions in place, with the pin_user_pages_fast() defines as
the only choice.

A subsequent patch is now possible, to rename all dio_w_*() functions so
as to remove the dio_w_ prefix.

-	  For Direct IO code, retain the pages via calls to

-	  This is a temporary setting, which will be deleted once the

-	  developers can enable this in order to try out each filesystem.
-	  For that, it's best to monitor these /proc/vmstat items:
