[34-longterm 100/247] NFS: fix the return value of nfs_file_fsync()

[Paul Gortmaker]

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

                   -------------------
    This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
    If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
                   -------------------

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.

[PG: in 34, nfs_file_fsync is just a wrapper around nfs_do_fsync,
 so the related code and actual change lands in nfs_do_fsync here.]
