We probably want to handle the case where generic_file_buffered_write
returns an error or nothing written.

akpm> SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE|
akpm> SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE|

generic_file_buffered_write takes written as an argument, and returns that
amount plus whatever it managed to write. As such, you don't want to add
written_buffered to written. Instead, you want written = written_buffered.
The endbyte calculation has to be altered in kind.
Incremental, locally tested patch attached. Comments are welcome as
always. Once there is consensus, I'll send this off for testing with
Oracle again.
