introduce __block_write_begin
Split up the block_write_begin implementation - __block_write_begin is a new
trivial wrapper for block_prepare_write that always takes an already
allocated page and can be either called from block_write_begin or filesystem
code that already has a page allocated. Remove the handling of already
allocated pages from block_write_begin after switching all callers that
do it to __block_write_begin.
