Bikeshedding: I think this would be better suited to inode_dio_begin()
and inode_dio_end() because now we are trying to say "this is where
the DIO starts, and this is where it ends". It's not really
"reference counting" interface, we're trying to annotate the
boundaries of where DIO iis protected against truncate....

*nod*

And while we are at, inode_dio_begin() could be static inline just fine.

Done (rename and docbook), and inode_dio_{begin.end}() made static inlines.

v3 against vfs-next attached.

Applied.

Awesome, thanks!
