"prev_bh" is a valid pointer. "bh" is an error pointer. "written" is either an error pointer, or a the number of bytes we have written. If we haven't written any bytes then we want to return the error code stored in "bh". So we need to that before resetting "bh" to a valid pointer. This bug is older than git.
