Subject: fs/mpage.c: fix mpage_writepage() for pages with buffers
From: Matthew Wilcox <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit f892760aa66a2d657deaf59538fb69433036767c upstream.
When using FAT on a block device which supports rw_page, we can hit
BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page)) in try_to_free_buffers(). This is because we
call clean_buffers() after unlocking the page we've written. Introduce
a new clean_page_buffers() which cleans all buffers associated with a
page and call it from within bdev_write_page().
