xfs: don't zero partial page cache pages during O_DIRECT writes

Browse source 
Similar to direct IO reads, direct IO writes are using 
truncate_pagecache_range to invalidate the page cache. This is
incorrect due to the sub-block zeroing in the page cache that
truncate_pagecache_range() triggers.

This patch fixes things by using invalidate_inode_pages2_range
instead.  It preserves the page cache invalidation, but won't zero
any pages.
