Currently fscrypt_zeroout_range() issues and waits on a bio for each
block it writes, which makes it very slow.

Optimize it to write up to 16 pages at a time instead.

Also add a function comment, and improve reliability by allowing the
allocations of the bio and the first ciphertext page to wait on the
corresponding mempools.
