Subject: [TEST for] fs: global sync to not clear error status of individual inodes

Junichi,

curious if you ever got to adapt a test case for xfstests for your patch
"fs: global sync to not clear error status of individual inodes", which
got merged as of v4.4 as:

aa750fd71c242dba02ee2034e15fbd7d0cdb2461 mm/filemap.c: make global sync not clear error status of individual inodes

You said you'd work on it, so curious if you ever got to it.

I had adapted the test for xfstests and posted at the time but it
didn't go further. I guess recent kernel changes in this area also
added related test cases to xfstests.
