That's not an oops. It's a debug warning.
You had non-uptodate buffers against an uptodate page. This
is an absurdity, but is not harmful.
Clearing BH_Uptodate on a write error has always seemed weird.
The error handling needs a review/rethink. Meanwhile I'll drop
a buffer_req test into those warnings to shut them up.
