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

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

From: David Howells <dhowells at redhat.com>

[ Upstream commit c596bea1452ddf172ec9b588e4597228e9a1f4d5 ]

Fix netfs_perform_write() to set BDP_ASYNC if IOCB_NOWAIT is set rather
than if IOCB_SYNC is not set.  It reflects asynchronicity in the sense of
not waiting rather than synchronicity in the sense of not returning until
the op is complete.

Without this, generic/590 fails on cifs in strict caching mode with a
complaint that one of the writes fails with EAGAIN.  The test can be
distilled down to:

        mount -t cifs /my/share /mnt -ostuff
        xfs_io -i -c 'falloc 0 8191M -c fsync -f /mnt/file
        xfs_io -i -c 'pwrite -b 1M -W 0 8191M' /mnt/file
