Hi Ben

We were apparently both looking at the same code last week ☺. I have a
similar patch, but that also fixes a similar clobbering issue with the
nfs_error_is_fatal() error just a few lines further down.

Without the extra hunk, we could end up converting an interrupted call
into a 'successful' write.

Cheers
  Trond

Subject: [PATCH] NFS: Fix up return value on fatal errors in
 nfs_page_async_flush()

Ensure that we return the fatal error value that caused us to exit
nfs_page_async_flush().

Fixes: a6598813a4c5 ("NFS: Don't write back further requests...")
