PATCH v2 1/1 f2fs: do not trim preallocated blocks when truncating after i_size

When we perform generic/092 in xfstests, output is like below:

     XXX Bytes, X ops; XX:XX:XX.X (XXX YYY/sec and XXX ops/sec)
     0: [0..10239]: data
     0: [0..10239]: data
    -1: [10240..20479]: unwritten
    +1: [10240..14335]: unwritten

This is because with this testcase, we redefine the regulation for truncate in perallocated space past i_size as below:

"There was some confused about what the fs was supposed to do when you truncate at i_size with preallocated space past i_size. We decided on the following things.

1) truncate(i_size) will trim all blocks past i_size.
2) truncate(x) where x > i_size will not trim all blocks past i_size. "

This method is used in xfs, and then ext4/btrfs will follow the rule.

This patch fixes to follow the new rule for f2fs.

It's wrong implementation here, because we have set i_size in inode with attr->ia_size, so that we will always go into this "truncate smaller size" branch.

Please ignore this patch, sorry for my mistake.

Jaegeuk, I'd like to use v1 patch, how do you think?

Thanks,

Oh, I see.
I'll merge v1.

Thank you for pointing out this.
