Subject: [PATCH 5.7 157/204] nfs: nfs_file_write() should check for writeback errors

From: Scott Mayhew <smayhew@...hat.com>

[ Upstream commit ce368536dd614452407dc31e2449eb84681a06af ]

The NFS_CONTEXT_ERROR_WRITE flag (as well as the check of said flag) was
removed by commit 6fbda89b257f.  The absence of an error check allows
writes to be continually queued up for a server that may no longer be
able to handle them.  Fix it by adding an error check using the generic
error reporting functions.

Fixes: 6fbda89b257f ("NFS: Replace custom error reporting mechanism with generic one")
