Only in 2.4.6pre3aa1: 00_ksoftirqd-6

(nice to have)

Only in 2.4.6pre2aa2: 00_o_direct-8
Only in 2.4.6pre3aa1: 00_o_direct-9

Improve truncate_inode_pages and invalidate_inode_pages2.

This patch triggered a bug in the alpha port where O_DIRECT
was defined as O_SYNC. O_DIRECTIO of tru64 is defined as ours
O_NOFOLLOW, so some breakage is going on. To at least allow
O_SYNC to work on alpha I defined for now O_DIRECT as 02000000
and we'll possibly change it later.

(recommended)

Only in 2.4.6pre3aa1: 00_backout-udelay-1
Only in 2.4.6pre3aa1: 10_alpha-udelay-1

Replace 2.4.6pre3 change with a better fix proposed by me and
implemented by Jeff.

(nice to have)
