In btrfs_file_write_iter(), we treat a write as synchrononous if the
file is marked as synchronous. However, with pwritev2(), a write with
RWF_SYNC or RWF_DSYNC is also synchronous even if the file isn't by
default. Make sure we bump the sync_writers counter in that case, too,
so that we'll do the CRCs synchronously.

I'd like to merge the patches 1-3, but have hard time matching the
changelog to the change here. It's from one set of sync flags to
another, mentioning pwritev2 but that's a syscall and the function
itself does not use the sync flags at all. That's probably somewhere
deep in the vfs calls but that's what I'd appreciate stated explicitly
in the changelog as I was not able to find it out in a reasonable time.

You're right, there are a few layers here. How about this for the
changelog:


The VFS indicates a synchronous write to ->write_iter() via
iocb->ki_flags. The IOCB_{,D}SYNC flags may be set based on the file
(see iocb_flags()) or the RWF_* flags passed to a syscall like
pwritev2() (see kiocb_set_rw_flags()). However, in
btrfs_file_write_iter(), we're checking if a write is synchronous based
only on the file; we use this to decide when to bump the sync_writers
counter and thus do CRCs synchronously. Make sure we do this for all
synchronous writes as determined by the VFS.


Let me know if you want me to resend with the new changelog.

That's great, thanks, no need to resend.
