NFS: Fix a write request leak in nfs_invalidate_page()

Ryusuke Konishi says:

The recent truncate_complete_page() clears the dirty flag from a page
before calling a_ops->invalidatepage(),
^^^^^^
static void
truncate_complete_page(struct address_space *mapping, struct page *page)
{
        ...
        cancel_dirty_page(page, PAGE_CACHE_SIZE);  <--- Inserted here at
kernel 2.6.20

        if (PagePrivate(page))
                do_invalidatepage(page, 0);   ---> will call
a_ops->invalidatepage()
        ...
}

and this is disturbing nfs_wb_page_priority() from calling 
nfs_writepage_locked() that is expected to handle the pending
request (=nfs_page) associated with the page.

int nfs_wb_page_priority(struct inode *inode, struct page *page, int how)
{
        ...
        if (clear_page_dirty_for_io(page)) {
                ret = nfs_writepage_locked(page, &wbc);
                if (ret < 0)
                        goto out;
        }
        ...
}

Since truncate_complete_page() will get rid of the page after
a_ops->invalidatepage() returns, the request (=nfs_page) associated
with the page becomes a garbage in nfs_inode->nfs_page_tree.
------------------------

Fix this by ensuring that nfs_wb_page_priority() recognises that it may
also need to clear out non-dirty pages that have an nfs_page associated
with them.
