3.16.57-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: "J. Bruce Fields" <[email protected]> commit 1b8d97b0a837beaf48a8449955b52c650a7114b4 upstream. If some of the WRITE calls making up an O_DIRECT write syscall fail, we neglect to commit, even if some of the WRITEs succeed. We also depend on the commit code to free the reference count on the nfs_page taken in the "if (request_commit)" case at the end of nfs_direct_write_completion(). The problem was originally noticed because ENOSPC's encountered partway through a write would result in a closed file being sillyrenamed when it should have been unlinked. Signed-off-by: J.
