Well, no...we'll keep the error from start_ordered_ops if there was one.
 We just advance the cursor past any stored error in that case without
returning it.

I have another fix for this patch too: there's a call to
filemap_check_errors in this function that I think should probably use
filemap_check_wb_err instead. Fixed in my tree.

I do agree though that while this works in my testing I'd like the btrfs
guys to ACK this as I don't fully grok the btrfs fsync code at all.
