[PATCH v2 2/5] dax: clear TOWRITE flag after flush is complete

[Ross Zwisler]

Previously in dax_writeback_one() we cleared the PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE flag
before we had actually flushed the tagged radix tree entry to media.  This
is incorrect because of the following race:

Thread 1				Thread 2
--------				--------
dax_writeback_mapping_range()
tag entry with PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE
					dax_writeback_mapping_range()
					tag entry with PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE
					dax_writeback_one()
					radix_tree_tag_clear(TOWRITE)
TOWRITE flag is no longer set,
  find_get_entries_tag() finds no
  entries, return
					flush entry to media

In this case thread 1 returns before the data for the dirty entry is
actually durable on media.

Fix this by only clearing the PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE flag after all flushing
is complete.
