nfsd: Reduce contention for the nfsd_file nf_rwsem

[ Upstream commit 474bc334698df98ce07c890f1898c7e7f389b0c7 ]

When flushing out the unstable file writes as part of a COMMIT call, try
to perform most of of the data writes and waits outside the semaphore.

This means that if the client is sending the COMMIT as part of a memory
reclaim operation, then it can continue performing I/O, with contention
for the lock occurring only once the data sync is finished.
