All places outside of core VFS that checked -&gt;read and -&gt;write for being NULL or
called the methods directly are gone now, so NULL {read,write} with non-NULL
{read,write}_iter will do the right thing in all cases.

truncate_pagecache() doesn't care about old size since commit
cedabed49b39 ("vfs: Fix vmtruncate() regression").  Let's drop it.

Code has been converted over to the new explicit on-stack plugging,
and delay users have been converted to use the new API for that.
So lets kill off the old plugging along with aops-&gt;sync_page().

<title>BFS: clean up the superblock usage</title>

BFS is a very simple FS and its superblocks contains only static
information and is never changed. However, the BFS code for some
misterious reasons marked its buffer head as dirty from time to
time, but nothing in that buffer was ever changed.

This patch removes all the BFS superblock manipulation, simply
because it is not needed. It removes:

1. The si_sbh filed from 'struct bfs_sb_info' because it is not
   needed. We only need to read the SB once on mount to get the
   start of data blocks and the FS size. After this, we can forget
   about the SB.
2. All instances of 'mark_buffer_dirty(sbh)' for BFS SB because
   it is never changed.
3. The '-&gt;sync_fs()' method because there is nothing to sync
   (inodes are synched by VFS).
4. The '-&gt;write_super()' method, again, because the SB is never
   changed.

Move the call to vmtruncate to get rid of accessive blocks to the callers
in preparation of the new truncate sequence and rename the non-truncating
version to block_write_begin.

While we're at it also remove several unused arguments to block_write_begin.

* Remove smp_lock.h from files which don't need it (including some headers!)
* Add smp_lock.h to files which do need it
* Make smp_lock.h include conditional in hardirq.h
  It's needed only for one kernel_locked() usage which is under CONFIG_PREEMPT

  This will make hardirq.h inclusion cheaper for every PREEMPT=n config
  (which includes allmodconfig/allyesconfig, BTW)
