Michael Lotz 1af7d11504 * Rework page writing to combine page writes where possible. For now the pages
are required to be physically contiguos, which should be reworked to put them
  into seperate iovecs. Still this manages to combine a great deal of page
  writes into larger bursts already. Reduces the amount of IO requests being
  scheduled (and greatly benefits media where page wise writes are slow when
  they are accessed through a non-IOScheduler path, i.e. USB mass storage until
  that is properly implemented).
* Abstracted per page page writing tasks into a PageWriteWrapper class.
* Abstracted per transfer page writing tasks into PageWriteTransfer class which
  formerly was the PageWriterCallback.
* Use both classes from the PageWriterRun and from
  vm_page_write_modified_page_range to remove code duplication.
* Adjusted synchronous VMAnonymousCache::Write() to cope correctly with larger
  iovecs and more than one iovec. It assumed that there was exactly one page per
  vector previously.
* Introduced MaxPagesPerWrite() and MaxPagesPerAsyncWrite() to VMCache to allow
  a cache to specify restricitions. VMAnonymousCache does restrict the max pages
  to 1 for WriteAsync right now as I didn't feel like reworking that one to cope
  with non single page writes just yet.
* Pulled out PageWriteTransfer methods for better readability.
* Some typo fixes.
