6.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Howells <dhowells at redhat.com>

[ Upstream commit 619606a7b8d5e54b71578ecc988d3f8e1896bbc6 ]

Fix the error return in netfs_perform_write() acting in writethrough-mode
to return any cached error in the case that netfs_end_writethrough()
returns 0.

This can affect the use of O_SYNC/O_DSYNC/RWF_SYNC/RWF_DSYNC in 9p and afs.

Fixes: 41d8e7673a77 ("netfs: Implement a write-through caching option")
