NeilBrown a2ad63daa8 VFS: add FMODE_CAN_ODIRECT file flag
Currently various places test if direct IO is possible on a file by
checking for the existence of the direct_IO address space operation.
This is a poor choice, as the direct_IO operation may not be used - it is
only used if the generic_file_*_iter functions are called for direct IO
and some filesystems - particularly NFS - don't do this.

Instead, introduce a new f_mode flag: FMODE_CAN_ODIRECT and change the
various places to check this (avoiding pointer dereferences).
do_dentry_open() will set this flag if ->direct_IO is present, so
filesystems do not need to be changed.

NFS *is* changed, to set the flag explicitly and discard the direct_IO
entry in the address_space_operations for files.

Other filesystems which currently use noop_direct_IO could usefully be
changed to set this flag instead.
