ceph: invalidate pages when doing direct/sync writes

When doing a direct/sync write, we need to invalidate the page cache in
the range being written to. If we don't do this, the cache will include
invalid data as we just did a write that avoided the page cache.

In the event that invalidation fails, just ignore the error. That likely
just means that we raced with another task doing a buffered write, in
which case we want to leave the page intact anyway.
