Neil Brown reports that he is seeing the BUG_ON(ret == 0) trigger in
nfs_page_async_flush. According to the trace in
     https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=599628
the problem appears to be due to nfs_wb_page() not waiting for the
PG_writeback flag to clear.

There is a ditto problem in nfs_wb_page_cancel()
