NFS: Cleanup of NFS write code in preparation for asynchronous o_direct
This patch inverts the callback hierarchy for NFS write calls. Instead of having the NFSv2/v3/v4-specific code set up the RPC callback ops, we allow the original caller to do so. This allows for more flexibility w.r.t. how to set up and tear down the nfs_write_data structure while still allowing the NFSv3/v4 code to perform error handling. The greater flexibility is needed by the asynchronous O_DIRECT code, which wants to be able to hold on to the original nfs_write_data structures after the WRITE RPC call has completed in order to be able to replay them if the COMMIT call determines that the server has rebooted.
