xfs: drop ->writepage completely
->writepage is only used in one place - single page writeback from memory reclaim. We only allow such writeback from kswapd, not from direct memory reclaim, and so it is rarely used. When it comes from kswapd, it is effectively random dirty page shoot-down, which is horrible for IO patterns. We will already have background writeback trying to clean all the dirty pages in memory as efficiently as possible, so having kswapd interrupt our well formed IO stream only slows things down. So get rid of xfs_vm_writepage() completely. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> [djwong: forward port to 5.15] Reviewed-by: Darrick J.
