Subject: mm: clear AS_EIO/AS_ENOSPC when writeback initiation fails
X-Git-Tag: v4.13-rc1~101^2~11
X-Git-Url: https://asedeno.scripts.mit.edu/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cbeaf9510a8631e9bb0077a95fd8b0db0b3be200;p=linux.git

mm: clear AS_EIO/AS_ENOSPC when writeback initiation fails

filemap_write_and_wait{_range} will return an error if writeback
initiation fails, but won't clear errors in the address_space. This is
particularly problematic on DAX, as filemap_fdatawrite* is
effectively synchronous there. Ensure that we clear the AS_EIO/AS_ENOSPC
flags when filemap_fdatawrite* returns an error.
