nilfs2: fix hang problem of log writer which occurs after write failures
Leandro Lucarella gave me a report that nilfs gets stuck after its write function fails. The problem turned out to be caused by bugs which leave writeback flag on pages. This fixes the problem by ensuring to clear the writeback flag in error path.
