mm: write_cache_pages writepage error fix

In write_cache_pages, if ret signals a real error, but we still have some
pages left in the pagevec, done would be set to 1, but the remaining pages
would continue to be processed and ret will be overwritten in the process.

It could easily be overwritten with success, and thus success will be
returned even if there is an error.  Thus the caller is told all writes
succeeded, wheras in reality some did not.

Fix this by bailing immediately if there is an error, and retaining the
first error code.

This is a data integrity bug.
