From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Mon Apr 25 2011 - 16:59:36 EST


2.6.27.59-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: J. R. Okajima <hooanon05@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0702099bd86c33c2dcdbd3963433a61f3f503901 upstream.

By the commit af7fa16 2010-08-03 NFS: Fix up the fsync code
close(2) became returning the non-zero value even if it went well.
nfs_file_fsync() should return 0 when "status" is positive.
