Subject: [patch 6/9] mm: be sure to trim blocks
Date: Mon, 29 Jan 2007 11:32:33 +0100 (CET)
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Content-Length: 3351

If prepare_write fails with AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE, or if commit_write fails, then
we may have failed the write operation despite prepare_write having
instantiated blocks past i_size. Fix this, and consolidate the trimming into
one place.
