I see. It's a bug:-)

Writes do as follows, allocating pages, mapping pages, copying bytes
from user space, dirtying page, changing i_size. Errors could happen
in copying and the page could be released after. so write on the same
block will introduce intersection. Am I right?
Thank you for your review.
