fbdefio: add set_page_dirty handler to deferred IO FB

Fixes kernel BUG at lib/radix-tree.c:473.

Previously the handler was incidentally provided by tmpfs but this was

    tmpfs: fix kernel BUG in shmem_delete_inode

appeared when the device node was on an ext3 filesystem.

v2: override a_ops at open() time rather than mmap() time to minimise
races per AKPM's concerns.
