mm: add support for async page locking
Normally waiting for a page to become unlocked, or locking the page,
requires waiting for IO to complete. Add support for lock_page_async()
and wait_on_page_locked_async(), which are callback based instead. This
allows a caller to get notified when a page becomes unlocked, rather
than wait for it.
We add a new iocb field, ki_waitq, to pass in the necessary data for this
to happen. We can unionize this with ki_cookie, since that is only used
for polled IO. Polled IO can never co-exist with async callbacks, as it is
(by definition) polled completions. struct wait_page_key is made public,
and we define struct wait_page_async as the interface between the caller
and the core.
