In testing a backport of the write_begin/write_end AOPs, a 10% re-read
regression was noticed when running iozone.  This regression was
introduced because the old AOPs would always do a mark_page_accessed(page)
after the commit_write, but when the new AOPs where introduced, the only
place this was kept was in pagecache_write_end().

This patch does the same thing in the generic case as what is done in
pagecache_write_end(), which is just to mark the page accessed before we
do write_end().
