Subject: [PATCH -mm] jbd: test BH_Write_EIO to detect errors on metadata buffers

__try_to_free_cp_buf(), __process_buffer(), and __wait_cp_io()
test BH_Uptodate flag to detect write I/O errors on metadata
buffers. But by commit 95450f5a7e53d5752ce1a0d0b8282e10fe745ae0
"ext3: don't read inode block if the buffer has a write error"(*),
BH_Uptodate flag can be set to inode buffers with BH_Write_EIO
in order to avoid reading old inode data. So now, we have to
test BH_Write_EIO flag of checkpointing inode buffers instead
of BH_Uptodate. This patch does it.

(*) http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/6/23/126

This patch depends on the following patch set in -mm:

#1 jbd: abort when failed to log metadata buffers
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/7/24/160
#2 jbd: fix error handling for checkpoint io
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/7/24/163
#3 ext3: add checks for errors from jbd
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/7/29/539
#4 jbd: don't dirty original metadata buffer on abort
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/7/24/168
