fs: remove prepare_write/commit_write
Nothing uses prepare_write or commit_write. Remove them from the tree completely.

prepare_write: called by the generic write path in VM to set up a write
|
||||
request for a page. This indicates to the address space that
|

the given range of bytes is about to be written. The
|
||||
address_space should check that the write will be able to

complete, by allocating space if necessary and doing any other

internal housekeeping. If the write will update parts of

any basic-blocks on storage, then those blocks should be

pre-read (if they haven't been read already) so that the

updated blocks can be written out properly.

commit_write: If prepare_write succeeds, new data will be copied

typically update the size of the file (if appropriate) and

mark the inode as dirty, and do any other related housekeeping

operations. It should avoid returning an error if possible -
