ext4: Use our own write_cache_pages() 

Make a copy of write_cache_pages() for the benefit of
ext4_da_writepages().  This allows us to simplify the code some, and
will allow us to further customize the code in future patches.

There are some nasty hacks in write_cache_pages(), which Linus has
(correctly) characterized as vile.  I've just copied it into
write_cache_pages_da(), without trying to clean those bits up lest I
break something in the ext4's delalloc implementation, which is a bit
fragile right now.  This will allow Dave Chinner to clean up
write_cache_pages() in mm/page-writeback.c, without worrying about
breaking ext4.  Eventually write_cache_pages_da() will go away when I
rewrite ext4's delayed allocation and create a general
ext4_writepages() which is used for all of ext4's writeback.  Until
now this is the lowest risk way to clean up the core
write_cache_pages() function.
