So it turns out the original patch was completely busted; the on-disk
i_size wasn't getting updated when we were truncating up.  Part of the
problem was the original way ATTR_SIZE was handled in ext4_setattr was
a bit of a mess, and it made it hard to understand.  So I've reworked
patch completely to clean up ext4_setattr while I was it.

Subject: [PATCH] ext4: only call ext4_truncate when size <= isize

At LSF we decided that if we truncate up from isize we shouldn't trim
fallocated blocks that were fallocated with KEEP_SIZE and are past the
new i_size.  This patch fixes ext4 to do this.

[ Completely reworked patch so that i_disksize would actually get set
  when truncating up.  Also reworked the code for handling truncate so
  that it's easier to handle. -- tytso ]
