#1465381 — [PATCH 3.14 20/46] nfs: dont create zero-length requests

FromGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date2016-08-18 16:00 +0200
Subject[PATCH 3.14 20/46] nfs: dont create zero-length requests
Message-ID<s7w1r-vD-15@gated-at.bofh.it>
3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Benjamin Coddington <bcodding@redhat.com>

commit 149a4fddd0a72d526abbeac0c8deaab03559836a upstream.

NFS doesn't expect requests with wb_bytes set to zero and may make
unexpected decisions about how to handle that request at the page IO layer.
Skip request creation if we won't have any wb_bytes in the request.
