What I'm trying to say is the new function with the EAGAIN return code

How about this version, then?
I like this much better; it is much more straightforward.

NFS: Clean up nfs_update_request()
Simplify the loop in nfs_update_request by moving into a separate function
the code that attempts to update an existing cached NFS write.

I asked about this in my previous comments. The removal of the context
check here deserves some explication in the patch description, IMO. It
would need nothing more than copying your reply to my question into the
patch description.

Nit: You might gain additional code clarity here by moving these
radix_tree operations into nfs_inode_add_request(). It appears that
nfs_setup_write_request() is the only caller of nfs_inode_add_request().
