Subject: [PATCH 3.16 230/306] fuse: fix fuse_write_end() if zero bytes
 were copied

3.16.40-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@...hat.com>

commit 59c3b76cc61d1d676f965c192cc7969aa5cb2744 upstream.

If pos is at the beginning of a page and copied is zero then page is not
zeroed but is marked uptodate.

Fix by skipping everything except unlock/put of page if zero bytes were
copied.

Reported-by: Al Viro <viro@...iv.linux.org.uk>
