As usually it fix one thing, and broke another :(.
So in case of alloc/truncate restart truncate will be aborted,
so i_size != i_disk_size which must be caught by fsck (my test run
it every time) but this never happens which is very strange.
The only reason i can explain this that truncate was called second
time which is probable due to should_retry_alloc logic.
Even more than this, i've changed the mistypo and have got massive
complain from fsck
Block bitmap differences:  -7954 -(33836--33854)
Fix<y>? yes

Free blocks count wrong for group #0 (24170, counted=24171).
Fix<y>? yes
...
Currently i'm digging the issue.
