[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH V2] ocfs2: update inode size after zeroed the hole

fs-writeback will release the dirty pages without page lock
whose offset are over inode size, the release happens at
block_write_full_page_endio(). If not update, dirty pages
in file holes may be released before flushed to the disk,
then file holes will contain some non-zero data, this will
cause sparse file md5sum error.

To reproduce the bug, find a big sparse file with many holes,
like vm image file, its actual size should be bigger than
available mem size to make writeback work more frequently,
tar it with -S option, then keep untar it and check its md5sum
again and again until you get a wrong md5sum.
