dax: fix race between simultaneous faults

Browse Source 
If two threads write-fault on the same hole at the same time, the winner
of the race will return to userspace and complete their store, only to
have the loser overwrite their store with zeroes.  Fix this for now by
taking the i_mmap_sem for write instead of read, and do so outside the
call to get_block().  Now the loser of the race will see the block has
already been zeroed, and will not zero it again.

This severely limits our scalability.  I have ideas for improving it, but
those can wait for a later patch.
