ext4: don't block for O_DIRECT if IOCB_NOWAIT is set
Running with some debug patches to detect illegal blocking triggered the
extend/unaligned condition in ext4. If ext4 needs to extend the file (and
hence go to buffered IO), or if the app is doing unaligned IO, then ext4
asks the iomap code to wait for IO completion. If the caller asked for
no-wait semantics by setting IOCB_NOWAIT, then ext4 should return -EAGAIN
instead.
