[patch 3/3] ext2: use perform_write aop

[Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de>]

Convert ext2 to use ->perform_write. This uses the main loop out of
generic_perform_write, but when encountering a short usercopy, it
zeroes out new uninitialised blocks, and passes in a short-length commit
to __block_commit_write, which does the right thing (in terms of not
setting things uptodate).
