NFS: call nfs_wb_all() only on regular files
It looks like nfs_setattr() and nfs_rename() also need to test whether the target is a regular file before calling nfs_wb_all()... It isn't technically needed since the version of nfs_wb_all() that exists on 2.6.16 should be safe to call on non-regular files (it will be a no-op). However it is a useful optimisation.
