Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the block tree

Hi all,

After merging the block tree, today's linux-next build (arm
multi_v7_defconfig) failed like this:

mm/filemap.c: In function 'generic_file_buffered_read':
mm/filemap.c:2075:9: error: 'written' undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean 'writeb'?
2075 | if (written) {
| ^~~~~~~
| writeb

Caused by commit

23d513106fd8 ("mm: support async buffered reads in generic_file_buffered_read()")

from the block tree interacting with commit

6e66f10f2cac ("fs: export generic_file_buffered_read()")

from the btrfs tree.

[Aside: that btrfs tree commit talks about "correct the comments and variable
names", but changes "written" to "copied" in the function definition
but to "already_read" in the header file declaration ...]

I ave applied the following merge fix patch:

Looks like a frivolous change... Thanks for fixing this up Stephen.

The variable name change has been removed from the btrfs tree.

Thanks - I'd encourage that name changing late in the merge window
instead. The change is obviously fine, but a) it should not be done in
an unrelated change, and b) it can be done without risking causing silly
merge issues.
