Could we have a comment here to remind anyone reading the code a year
from now that filemap_report_wb_err has side effects?  Pre-coffee me was
wondering why we'd bother calling filemap_report_wb_err in the
XFS_FORCED_SHUTDOWN case, then remembered that it touches data
structures.

The first sentence of the commit message (really, the word 'advance')
added as a comment was adequate to remind me of the side effects.

Once that's added,
