NFS: Don't use SetPageError in the NFS writeback code
The writeback code is already capable of passing errors back to user space
by means of the open_context->error. In the case of ENOSPC, Neil Brown
is reporting seeing 2 errors being returned.
Neil writes:
"e.g. if /mnt2/ if an nfs mounted filesystem that has no space then
strace dd if=/dev/zero conv=fsync >> /mnt2/afile count=1
reported Input/output error and the relevant parts of the strace output are:
write(1, "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 512) = 512
fsync(1) = -1 EIO (Input/output error)
close(1) = -1 ENOSPC (No space left on device)"
Neil then shows that the duplication of error messages appears to be due to
the use of the PageError() mechanism, which causes filemap_fdatawait_range
to return the extra EIO. The regression was introduced by
commit 7b281ee026
(NFS: fsync() must exit
with an error if page writeback failed).
Fix this by removing the call to SetPageError(), and just relying on
open_context->error reporting the ENOSPC back to fsync().
