[XFS] Fixing the error caused by the conflict between DIO Write's
conversion and concurrent truncate operations. Use vn_iowait to wait for the completion of any pending DIOs. Since the truncate requires exclusive IOLOCK, so this blocks any further DIO operations since DIO write also needs exclusive IOBLOCK. This serves as a barrier and prevent any potential starvation.
