Still does - the problem has migrated into direct_write_fallback(), but
that hadn't changed the situation.  We are still left with ->ki_pos bumped
by generic_perform_write() (evaluated as an argument of direct_write_fallback()
now) and *not* retraced in case when direct_write_fallback() decides to
discard the buffered write result.  Both in -next and in mainline (since
6.5-rc1).
