Do you know why someone added the AOP_FLAG_UNITERRUPTIBLE check in
cifs_write_begin instead of always marking a page up to date if we are
writing the whole page?  How often would that flag be set - I only see
it in the path which calls generic_file_buffered_write

 	/* If we are writing a full page it will be up to date,
 	   no need to read from the server */
 	if (len == PAGE_CACHE_SIZE && flags & AOP_FLAG_UNINTERRUPTIBLE)

It seems restrictive
