When we are writing back page but we cannot for some reason write all its buffers (e.g. because we cannot allocate blocks in current context) we have to keep TOWRITE tag set in the mapping as otherwise racing WB_SYNC_ALL writeback that could write these buffers can skip the page and result in data loss. We will need this logic for writeback during transaction commit so move the logic from ext4_writepage() to ext4_bio_write_page().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
