xfs: skip dirty pages in ->releasepage() 

XFS has had scattered reports of delalloc blocks present at
->releasepage() time. This results in a warning with a stack trace
similar to the following:

 ...

  [<ffffffffa26b404f>] ret_from_fork+0x3f/0x70
  [<ffffffffa20a0cd0>] ? kthread_stop+0x100/0x100

This occurs because it is possible for shrink_active_list() to send
pages marked dirty to ->releasepage() when certain buffer_head threshold
conditions are met. shrink_active_list() doesn't check the page dirty
state apparently to handle an old ext3 corner case where in some cases
clean pages would not have the dirty bit cleared, thus it is up to the
filesystem to determine how to handle the page.

XFS currently handles the delalloc case properly, but this behavior
makes the warning spurious. Update the XFS ->releasepage() handler to
explicitly skip dirty pages. Retain the existing delalloc/unwritten
checks so we continue to warn if such buffers exist on clean pages when
they shouldn't.
