4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: J. Bruce Fields bfields@redhat.com
commit 1b8d97b0a837beaf48a8449955b52c650a7114b4 upstream.
If some of the WRITE calls making up an O_DIRECT write syscall fail, we neglect to commit, even if some of the WRITEs succeed.
We also depend on the commit code to free the reference count on the nfs_page taken in the "if (request_commit)" case at the end of nfs_direct_write_completion(). The problem was originally noticed because ENOSPC's encountered partway through a write would result in a closed file being sillyrenamed when it should have been unlinked.
