[PATCH] fuse: make maximum write data configurable

Make the maximum size of write data configurable by the filesystem.  The
previous fixed 4096 limit only worked on architectures where the page size is
less or equal to this.  This change make writing work on other architectures
too, and also lets the filesystem receive bigger write requests in direct_io
mode.

Normal writes which go through the page cache are still limited to a page
sized chunk per request.
