kmemtrace, fs: uninline simple_transaction_set()
Impact: cleanup We want to remove percpu.h from rcupdate.h (for upcoming kmemtrace changes), but this is not possible currently without breaking the build because fs.h has an implicit include file depedency: it uses PAGE_SIZE but does not include asm/page.h which defines it. This problem gets masked in practice because most fs.h using sites use rcupreempt.h (and other headers) which includes percpu.h which brings in asm/page.h indirectly. We cannot add asm/page.h to asm/fs.h because page.h is not an exported header. Move simple_transaction_set() to the other simple-transaction file helpers in fs/libfs.c. This removes the include file hell and also reduces kernel size a bit.
