From: Anton Altaparmakov <aia21@cam.ac.uk>

It makes no sense to me to export invalidate_inode_pages() and not
invalidate_mapping_pages() and I actually need invalidate_mapping_pages()
because of its range specification ability...

akpm: also remove the export of invalidate_inode_pages() by making it an
inlined wrapper.
