In some places, it's trying to reset the mapping error after calling
filemap_fdatawait. That's no longer required. Also, turn several
filemap_fdatawrite+filemap_fdatawait calls into filemap_write_and_wait.
That will at least return writeback errors that occur during the write
phase.

This part doesn't look right at all. There's a big difference in gfs2 between
mapping and metamapping. We need to wait for metamapping regardless.

This error is discarded in the current code after resetting the error in
the mapping. With the earlier patches in this set we don't need to reset
the error like this anymore.

Now, if this code should doing something else with those errors, then
that's a separate problem.

...and this should wait. Basically, filemap_write_and_wait does
filemap_fdatawrite and then filemap_fdatawait. This is mostly just
replacing the existing code with a more concise helper.

Okay, I see. My bad.

But this isn't a simple replacement with a helper. This is two different
address spaces (mapping and metamapping) and you added an else in there.

So with this patch metamapping gets written, and if there's an ip,
mapping gets written but it doesn't wait for metamapping. Unless
I'm missing something.

You could replace both filemap_fdatawrites with the helper instead.
Today's code is structured as:

(a) write metamapping
if (ip)
    (b) write mapping
    (c) wait for mapping
(d) wait for metamapping

If you use the helper for both, it becomes, (a & d)(b & c) which is probably
acceptable. (I think we just tried to optimize what the elevator was doing).

But the way you've got it coded here still looks wrong. It looks like:
(a)
if (ip)
   (b & c)
ELSE -
   (d)

So (d) (metamapping) isn't guaranteed to be synced at the end of the function.
Of course, you know the modified helper functions better than I do.
What am I missing?

<facepalm>
You're right of course. I'll fix that up in my tree.

Thanks!
