f2fs: use iomap for direct I/O
Make f2fs_file_read_iter() and f2fs_file_write_iter() use the iomap direct I/O implementation instead of the fs/direct-io.c one. The iomap implementation is more efficient, and it also avoids the need to add new features and optimizations to the old implementation. This new implementation also eliminates the need for f2fs to hook bio submission and completion and to allocate memory per-bio. This is because it's possible to correctly update f2fs's in-flight DIO counters using __iomap_dio_rw() in combination with an implementation of iomap_dio_ops::end_io() (as suggested by Christoph Hellwig). When possible, this new implementation preserves existing f2fs behavior such as the conditions for falling back to buffered I/O. This patch has been tested with xfstests by running 'gce-xfstests -c f2fs -g auto -X generic/017' with and without this patch; no regressions were seen. (Some tests fail both before and after. generic/017 hangs both before and after, so it had to be excluded.)
