[PATCH v8 06/18] mm: clear AS_EIO/AS_ENOSPC when writeback initiation fails

[jlayton@kernel.org]

From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com>

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 it's effectively synchronous. Ensure
that we clear the AS_EIO/AS_ENOSPC flags when filemap_fdatawrite returns
an error.
