1/ remove 'start' and 'end' args from nfs_file_fsync_commit().
They aren't used.
2/ Make nfs_context_set_write_error() a "static inline" in internal.h
so we can...
3/ Use nfs_context_set_write_error() instead of mapping_set_error()
if nfs_pageio_add_request() fails before sending any request.
NFS generally keeps errors in the open_context, not the mapping,
so this is more consistent.
4/ If filemap_write_and_write_range() reports any error, still
check ctx->error. The value in ctx->error is likely to be
more useful. As part of this, NFS_CONTEXT_ERROR_WRITE is
cleared slightly earlier, before nfs_file_fsync_commit() is called,
rather than at the start of that function.

The writeback code wants to send a commit after processing the pages,
which is why we want to delay releasing the struct path until after
that's done.
Also, the layout code expects that we do not free the inode before
we've put the layout segments in pnfs_writehdr_free() and
pnfs_readhdr_free()

There are a number of callers of nfs_pageio_complete() that want to
continue using the nfs_pageio_descriptor without needing to call
nfs_pageio_init() again. Examples include nfs_pageio_resend() and
nfs_pageio_cond_complete().
The problem is that nfs_pageio_complete() also calls
nfs_pageio_cleanup_mirroring(), which frees up the array of mirrors.
This can lead to writeback errors, in the next call to
nfs_pageio_setup_mirroring().
Fix by simply moving the allocation of the mirrors to
nfs_pageio_setup_mirroring().

Commit a7d42ddb30 ("nfs: add mirroring

non-sequental I/O that needed to be flushed. The result is that for
layouts that have more than one layout segment per file, the pg_lseg is not
cleared, so we can end up hitting the WARN_ON_ONCE(req_start >= seg_end) in
pnfs_generic_pg_test since the pg_lseg will be pointing to that

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

Recent work in the pgio layer made it possible for there to be more than one
request per page. This caused a subtle change in commit behavior, because
write.c:nfs_commit_unstable_pages compares the number of *pages* waiting for
writeback against the number of requests on a commit list to choose when to
send a COMMIT in a non-blocking flush.
This is probably hard to hit in normal operation - you have to be using
rsize/wsize < PAGE_SIZE, or pnfs with lots of boundaries that are not page
aligned to have a noticeable change in behavior.
