[PATCH] NFS: commit direct writes even if they fail partially

["J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@fieldses.org>]

From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@redhat.com>

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.
