tmpfs: support aio

We have a request for tmpfs to support the AIO interface: easily done, no
more than replacing the old shmem_file_read by shmem_file_aio_read,
cribbed from generic_file_aio_read.  (In 2.6.25 its write side was already
changed to use generic_file_aio_write.)

Incorporate cleanups from Andrew Morton and Harvey Harrison.

Tests out fine with LTP's ltp-aiodio.sh, given hacks (not included) to
support O_DIRECT.  tmpfs cannot honestly support O_DIRECT: its
cache-avoiding-IO nature is at odds with direct IO-avoiding-cache.
