    NFS: Fix an unstable write data integrity race · 71d0a611

    Commit 2c61be0a
    
     (NFS: Ensure that the WRITE
    and COMMIT RPC calls are always uninterruptible) exposed a race on file
    close. In order to ensure correct close-to-open behaviour, we want to wait
    for all outstanding background commit operations to complete.
    
    This patch adds an inode flag that indicates if a commit operation is under
    way, and provides a mechanism to allow ->write_inode() to wait for its
    completion if this is a data integrity flush.
