3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 9f67f189939eccaa54f3d2c9cf10788abaf2d584 upstream. Looks like this bug has been here since these write counts were introduced, not sure why it was just noticed now. Thanks also to Jan Kara for pointing out the problem.
