    [GFS2] Tidy up meta_io code · 7276b3b0

    Fix a bug in the directory reading code, where we might have dereferenced
    a NULL pointer in case of OOM. Updated the directory code to use the new
    & improved version of gfs2_meta_ra() which now returns the first block
    that was being read. Previously it was releasing it requiring following
    code to grab the block again at each point it was called.
    
    Also turned off readahead on directory lookups since we are reading a
    hash table, and therefore reading the entries in order is very
    unlikely. Readahead is still used for all other calls to the
    directory reading function (e.g. when growing the hash table).
    
    Removed the DIO_START constant. Everywhere this was used, it was
    used to unconditionally start i/o aside from a couple of places, so
    I've removed it and made the couple of exceptions to this rule into
    separate functions.
    
    Also hunted through the other DIO flags and removed them as arguments
    from functions which were always called with the same combination of
    arguments.
    
    Updated gfs2_meta_indirect_buffer to be a bit more efficient and
    hopefully also be a bit easier to read.
