[PATCH] afs: Fix afs_write_end() when called with copied == 0

[David Howells]

When afs_write_end() is called with copied == 0, it tries to set the dirty
region, but there's no way to actually encode a 0-length region in the
encoding in page->private.  "0,0", for example, indicates a 1-byte region
at offset 0.  The maths miscalculates this and sets it incorrectly.

Fix it to just do nothing but unlock and put the page in this case.  We
don't actually need to mark the page dirty as nothing presumably changed.

Oops.  I forgot to compile it after picking it from a patch series.  There's
an uninitialised warning in it.
