(This time with with a proper signoff.) The fsync prototype change commit 02c24a82187d accidentally overwrote the ssize_t return value of xfs_file_aio_write with 0 for SYNC type writes. Fix this by checking if an error occured when calling xfs_file_fsync and only change the return value in this case. In addition xfs_file_fsync actually returns a normal negative error, so fix this, too.
