Ronnie Sahlberg f5d0f921ea cifs: destage any unwritten data to the server before calling copychunk_write
because the copychunk_write might cover a region of the file that has not yet
been sent to the server and thus fail.

A simple way to reproduce this is:
truncate -s 0 /mnt/testfile; strace -f -o x -ttT xfs_io -i -f -c 'pwrite 0k 128k' -c 'fcollapse 16k 24k' /mnt/testfile

the issue is that the 'pwrite 0k 128k' becomes rearranged on the wire with
the 'fcollapse 16k 24k' due to write-back caching.

fcollapse is implemented in cifs.ko as a SMB2 IOCTL(COPYCHUNK_WRITE) call
and it will fail serverside since the file is still 0b in size serverside
until the writes have been destaged.
To avoid this we must ensure that we destage any unwritten data to the
server before calling COPYCHUNK_WRITE.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
