[PATCH]NFS: Fix for bug in handling of errors for O_DIRECT writes

commit eda3cef8dd2b838 ensured that if a WRITE returns an error, then
data->res.verf->committed is not tested (as it is not initialised).

commit 60fa3f769f inadvertently reverted this while fixing other problems.

So move the test so that we never examine ->committed in an error
case, and fix a speeling error while we are there.

Note: only compile tested - I haven't tried triggering the bug yet.
