<<<<<<<<<<<  If i've understand correctly folowing scenario possible:
         iteration 1: ->iovec_iterator_fault_in_readable(...)  = 0           
         iteration 1: __block_prepare_write  = {blocks allocated}
         iteration 1: iovec_iterator_copy_from_user_atomic(...) = 0 
         iteration 1: while(iovec_iterator_count(i))  == goto next loop

         iteration 2: ->iovec_iterator_fault_in_readable(...)  = -EFAULT
                      Than breack loop .
         At this point prepare_write() may have instantiated a few blocks
         outside i_size on iteration(1) So we have to trim these off again.
