    fscache: Fix hanging wait on page discarded by writeback · 2c984257
    David Howells authored
    If the fscache asynchronous write operation elects to discard a page that's
    pending storage to the cache because the page would be over the store limit
    then it needs to wake the page as someone may be waiting on completion of
    the write.
    
    The problem is that the store limit may be updated by a different
    asynchronous operation - and so may miss the write - and that the store
    limit may not even get updated until later by the netfs.
    
    Fix the kernel hang by making fscache_write_op() mark as written any pages
    that are over the limit.
