when AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE is returned (as NFS does when it detects congestion) it is important that the page is redirtied. nfs_writepage_locked() doesn't do this, so files can become corrupted as writes can be lost.
Note that this is not needed in v6.8 as AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE cannot be returned. It is needed for kernels v5.18..v6.7. From 6.3 onward the patch is different as it needs to mention "folio", not "page".
