In ceph_sync_write(), if a safe callback is supplied with a request,
and an error is returned by ceph_osdc_wait_request(), a block of
code is executed to remove the request from the unsafe writes list
and drop references to capabilities acquired just prior to a call to
ceph_osdc_wait_request().
The only function used for this callback is sync_write_commit(),
and it does *exactly* what that block of error handling code does.
Now in ceph_osdc_wait_request(), if an error occurs (due to an
interupt during a wait_for_completion_interruptible() call),
complete_request() gets called, and that calls the request's
safe_callback method if it's defined.
So this means that this cleanup activity gets called twice in this
case, which is erroneous (and in fact leads to a crash).
Fix this by just letting the osd client handle the cleanup in
the event of an interrupt.
This resolves one problem mentioned in:
