[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH] ocfs2: fix issue that ocfs2_setattr() does not deal with new_i_size==i_size

The issue scenario is as following:
1. fallocate a large disk space(eg. 30G) with FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE
for a file whose i_size and disk size are 512(or other size). 
After executing fallocate, i_size file is still 512, and the disk 
size became to 30G+512;
2. ftruncate the file to new_i_size which equal to inode->i_size.
After executing ftruncate, disk space does not changes. 
In other words, i_size file is still 512, and disk size is
30G+512. But we want disk size to be 512.
This does not meet our expectations.

In order to Solving the issue above, we modified ocfs2_setattr(), 
if attr->ia_size != i_size_read(inode), It calls 
ocfs2_truncate_file(), and truncate disk space to attr->ia_size.
