mm.h doesn't use directly anything from mutex.h and backing-dev.h, so
remove them and add them back to files which need them.

Cross-compile tested on many configs and archs.

afs_prepare_write() should not mark a page up to date if it only partially
fills it in, in expectation of the caller filling in the rest prior to calling
commit_write().  commit_write(), however, should mark the page up to date.

Following bug was uncovered by compiling with '-W' flag:

  CC [M]  fs/afs/write.o
fs/afs/write.c: In function âafs_write_back_from_locked_pageâ:
fs/afs/write.c:398: warning: comparison of unsigned expression &gt;= 0 is always true

Loop variable 'n' is unsigned, so wraps around happily as far as I can
see. Trival fix attached (compile tested only).

Further fixes for AFS write support:

 (1) The afs_send_pages() outer loop must do an extra iteration if it ends
     with 'first == last' because 'last' is inclusive in the page set
     otherwise it fails to send the last page and complete the RxRPC op under
     some circumstances.

 (2) Similarly, the outer loop in afs_pages_written_back() must also do an
     extra iteration if it ends with 'first == last', otherwise it fails to
     clear PG_writeback on the last page under some circumstances.

AFS write support fixes:

 (1) Support large files using the 64-bit file access operations if available
     on the server.

 (2) Use kmap_atomic() rather than kmap() in afs_prepare_page().

 (3) Don't do stuff in afs_writepage() that's done by the caller.

<title>AFS: implement basic file write support</title>

<id>31143d5d515ece617ffccb7df5ff75e4d1dfa120</id>

Implement support for writing to regular AFS files, including:

 (1) write

 (2) truncate

 (3) fsync, fdatasync

 (4) chmod, chown, chgrp, utime.

AFS writeback attempts to batch writes into as chunks as large as it can manage
up to the point that it writes back 65535 pages in one chunk or it meets a
locked page.

Furthermore, if a page has been written to using a particular key, then should
another write to that page use some other key, the first write will be flushed
before the second is allowed to take place.  If the first write fails due to a
security error, then the page will be scrapped and reread before the second
write takes place.

If a page is dirty and the callback on it is broken by the server, then the
dirty data is not discarded (same behaviour as NFS).

Shared-writable mappings are not supported by this patch.
