iomap: make buffered writes work with RWF_DONTCACHE
Add iomap buffered write support for RWF_DONTCACHE. If RWF_DONTCACHE is set for a write, mark the folios being written as uncached. Then writeback completion will drop the pages. The write_iter handler simply kicks off writeback for the pages, and writeback completion will take care of the rest. Signed-off-by: "Darrick J.
