[PATCH]NFS: Fix for bug in handling of errors for O_DIRECT writes
From: Trond Myklebust
Date: Tue Oct 23 2007 - 17:08:37 EST
From: Neil Brown <neilb@xxxxxxx>
commit eda3cef8dd2b838 ensured that if a WRITE returns an error, then
data->res.verf->committed is not tested (as it is not initialised).
commit 60fa3f769f inadvertently reverted this while fixing other problems.
So move the test so that we never examine ->committed in an error
case, and fix a speeling error while we are there.

Note: only compile tested - I haven't tried triggering the bug yet.
