[PATCH 1/2] NFS: Use of mapping_set_error() results in spurious errors

[trondmy@kernel.org]

From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@hammerspace.com>

The use of mapping_set_error() in conjunction with calls to
filemap_check_errors() is problematic because every error gets reported
as either an EIO or an ENOSPC by filemap_check_errors() in functions
such as filemap_write_and_wait() or filemap_write_and_wait_range().
In almost all cases, we prefer to use the more nuanced wb errors.

Fixes: b8946d7bfb94 ("NFS: Revalidate the file mapping on all fatal writeback errors")
