From: Daniel McNeil <daniel@osdl.org>

This is a patch to generic_file_buffered_write() to correctly
handle partial O_DIRECT writes (because of unallocated blocks)
when there is more than 1 iovec.  Without this patch, the code is
writing the wrong iovec (it writes the first iovec a 2nd time).

Included is a test program dio_bug.c that shows the problem by:
	writing 4k to offset 4k
	writing 4k to offset 12k
	writing 8k to offset 4k
The result is that 8k write writes the 1st 4k of the buffer twice.

$ rm f; ./dio_bug f
wrong value offset 8k expected 0x33 got 0x11
wrong value offset 10k expected 0x44 got 0x22

with patch
$ rm f; ./dio_bug f

	fd = open(argv[1], O_DIRECT|O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0666);

	if (fd < 0) {
		perror("open");
		exit(1);
	}

	buf = valloc(8192);

	lseek(fd, 0x1000, SEEK_SET);
	memset(buf, 0x11, 2048);
	memset(buf+2048, 0x22, 2048);
	i = write(fd, buf, 4096);	/* 4k write of 0x11 and 0x22 at 4k */

	lseek(fd, 0x3000, SEEK_SET);
	memset(buf, 0x55, 2048);
	memset(buf+2048, 0x66, 2048);

	memset(buf+4096, 0x33 , 2048);

	v[0].iov_base = buf;
	v[0].iov_len = 4096;
	v[1].iov_base = buf + 4096;
	v[1].iov_len = 4096;
	lseek(fd, 0x1000, SEEK_SET);
	i = writev(fd, v, 2);	/* 8k write of 0x11, 0x22, 0x33, 0x44 at 4k */

	lseek(fd, 0x2000, SEEK_SET);

	if (buf[0] != 0x33)
		printf("wrong value offset 8k expected 0x33 got 0x%x\n",
			buf[0]);
	if (buf[2048] != 0x44)
		printf("wrong value offset 10k expected 0x44 got 0x%x\n",
			buf[2048]);
