If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jaegeuk Kim [ Upstream commit 5b19d284f5195a925dd015a6397bfce184097378 ] pageout() in MM traslates EAGAIN, so calls handle_write_error() -> mapping_set_error() -> set_bit(AS_EIO, ...). file_write_and_wait_range() will see EIO error, which is critical to return value of fsync() followed by atomic_write failure to user.
