Xiubo Li cb8757b965 ceph: do not execute direct write in parallel if O_APPEND is specified 
[ Upstream commit 8e4473bb50 ]

In O_APPEND & O_DIRECT mode, the data from different writers will
be possibly overlapping each other since they take the shared lock.

For example, both Writer1 and Writer2 are in O_APPEND and O_DIRECT
mode:

          Writer1                         Writer2

     shared_lock()                   shared_lock()
     getattr(CAP_SIZE)               getattr(CAP_SIZE)
     iocb->ki_pos = EOF              iocb->ki_pos = EOF
     write(data1)
                                     write(data2)
     shared_unlock()                 shared_unlock()

The data2 will overlap the data1 from the same file offset, the
old EOF.

Switch to exclusive lock instead when O_APPEND is specified.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
