Subject: [PATCH 5.4 11/28] gfs2: Prevent direct-I/O write fallback errors from getting lost

From: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruenba@...hat.com>

[ Upstream commit 43a511c44e58e357a687d61a20cf5ef1dc9e5a7c ]

When a direct I/O write falls entirely and falls back to buffered I/O and the
buffered I/O fails, the write failed with return value 0 instead of the error
number reported by the buffered I/O. Fix that.
