given that devmnt will almost always write into a pipe
or a network connection, which supports te bwrite routine,
we can avoid the memory copy that would have been done by
devbwrite(). this also means the i/o buffer for writes
will get freed sooner without having to wait for the 9p
rpc to get a response, saving memory.
theres one case where we have to keep the rpc arround and
that is when we write to a cached file, as we want to update
the cache with the data that was written, but the user buffer
cannot be trusted to stay the same during the rpc.
