NFS: fix subtle change in COMMIT behavior
Recent work in the pgio layer made it possible for there to be more than one request per page. This caused a subtle change in commit behavior, because write.c:nfs_commit_unstable_pages compares the number of *pages* waiting for writeback against the number of requests on a commit list to choose when to send a COMMIT in a non-blocking flush. This is probably hard to hit in normal operation - you have to be using rsize/wsize < PAGE_SIZE, or pnfs with lots of boundaries that are not page aligned to have a noticeable change in behavior.
