Right now we don't really have such a thing as temporary errors in the
writeback codepath. If you return an error here, the data doesn't stay
dirty or anything, and I think we want to ensure that that gets reported
via fsync.

I'd like to see us add better handling for retryable errors for stuff
like ENOMEM or EAGAIN. I think this is the first step toward that
though. Once we have more consistent handling of writeback errors in
general, then we can start doing more interesting things with retryable
errors.

So yeah, I this is the right thing to do for now.
