    Pull Writeback error handling fixes from Jeff Layton:
     "The main rationale for all of these changes is to tighten up writeback
      error reporting to userland. There are many ways now that writeback
      errors can be lost, such that fsync/fdatasync/msync return 0 when
      writeback actually failed.
    
      This pile contains a small set of cleanups and writeback error
      handling fixes that I was able to break off from the main pile (#2).
    
      Two of the patches in this pile are trivial. The exceptions are the
      patch to fix up error handling in write_one_page, and the patch to
      make JFS pay attention to write_one_page errors"
