mm: write_cache_pages terminate quickly

Browse Source 
Terminate the write_cache_pages loop upon encountering the first page past
end, without locking the page.  Pages cannot have their index change when
we have a reference on them (truncate, eg truncate_inode_pages_range
performs the same check without the page lock).
