Subject: [PATCH 4.19 44/50] mm: add filemap_fdatawait_range_keep_errors()

From: Ross Zwisler <zwisler@...omium.org>

commit aa0bfcd939c30617385ffa28682c062d78050eba upstream.

In the spirit of filemap_fdatawait_range() and
filemap_fdatawait_keep_errors(), introduce
filemap_fdatawait_range_keep_errors() which both takes a range upon
which to wait and does not clear errors from the address space.
