fs: allow short direct-io reads to be completed via buffered IO
This is similar to what already happens in the write case. If we have a short read while doing O_DIRECT, instead of just returning, fallthrough and try to read the rest via buffered IO. BTRFS needs this because if we encounter a compressed or inline extent during DIO, we need to fallback on buffered. If the extent is compressed we need to read the entire thing into memory and de-compress it into the users pages. I have tested this with fsx and everything works great.
