In the I/O locking code borrowed from NFS into netfslib, i_rwsem is held locked across a buffered write - but this causes a performance regression in cifs as it excludes buffered reads for the duration (cifs didn't use any locking for buffered reads). Mitigate this somewhat by downgrading the i_rwsem to a read lock across the buffered write. This at least allows parallel reads to occur whilst excluding other writes, DIO, truncate and setattr. Note that this shouldn't be a problem for a buffered write as a read through an mmap can circumvent i_rwsem anyway. Also note that we might want to make this change in NFS also.
