Rework we deal with the cleanup after the writepage call. First handle
the magic AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE separately from real error returns to
get it out of the way of the actual error handling. Then merge the
code to set ret for integrity vs non-integrity writeback. For
non-integrity writeback the loop is terminated on the first error, so
ret will never be non-zero. Then use a single block to check for
non-integrity writewack to consolidate the cases where it returns for
either an error or running off the end of nr_to_write.
