Fix the cifs_writepages_region() to just jump over members of the batch
that have been cleaned up rather than counting them as skipped.
Unlike the other "skip_write" cases, this situation happens even for
WB_SYNC_ALL, simply because the page has either been cleaned by somebody
else, or was truncated.
So in this case we're not "skipping" the write, we simply no longer need
any write at all, so it's very different from the other skip_write cases.
And we definitely shouldn't stop writing the rest just because of too
many of these cases (or because we want to be rescheduled).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
