Fix:
 - a direct IO read/buffered read data corruption
 - the associated fallout from the DIO data corruption fix
 - collapse range bugs that are potential data corruption issues.

Pull xfs fixes from Dave Chinner:
 "The fixes all address recently discovered data corruption issues.

  The original Direct IO issue was discovered by Chris Mason @ Facebook
  on a production workload which mixed buffered reads with direct reads
  and writes IO to the same file.  The fix for that exposed other issues
  with page invalidation (exposed by millions of fsx operations) failing
  due to dirty buffers beyond EOF.

  Finally, the collapse_range code could also cause problems due to
  racing writeback changing the extent map while it was being shifted
  around.  The commits for that problem are simple mitigation fixes that
  prevent the problem from occuring.  A more robust fix for 3.18 that
  addresses the underlying problem is currently being worked on by
  Brian.

  Summary of fixes:
   - a direct IO read/buffered read data corruption
   - the associated fallout from the DIO data corruption fix
   - collapse range bugs that are potential data corruption issues"
