Message-ID: <20251021070353.96705-3-mngyadam@amazon.de>

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

commit e003f74afbd2feadbb9ffbf9135e2d2fb5d320a5 upstream.

Factor out a helper that calls filemap_write_and_wait_range and
invalidate_inode_pages2_range for the range covered by a write kiocb or
returns -EAGAIN if the kiocb is marked as nowait and there would be pages
to write or invalidate.
