[PATCH] ceph: try to queue a writeback if revoking fails

[Xiubo Li <xiubli@redhat.com>]

If the pagecaches writeback just finished and the i_wrbuffer_ref
reaches zero it will try to trigger ceph_check_caps(). But if just
before ceph_check_caps() the i_wrbuffer_ref could be increased
again by mmap/cache write, then the Fwb revoke will fail.

We need to try to queue a writeback in this case instead of
triggering the writeback by BDI's delayed work per 5 seconds.
