vfs: Rename generic_file_aio_write_nolock

generic_file_aio_write_nolock() is now used only by block devices and raw
character device. Filesystems should use __generic_file_aio_write() in case
generic_file_aio_write() doesn't suit them. So rename the function to
blkdev_aio_write() and move it to fs/blockdev.c.

- * This is a wrapper around __generic_file_aio_write() which takes care of

- * do a write but already holds i_mutex, use __generic_file_aio_write()
- * directly and then sync the file like generic_file_aio_write().
