From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx> The extent shifting code uses a flush and invalidate mechainsm prior to shifting extents around. This is similar to what xfs_free_file_space() does, but it doesn't take into account things like page cache vs block size differences, and it will fail if there is a page that it currently busy. xfs_flush_unmap_range() handles all of these cases, so just convert xfs_prepare_shift() to us that mechanism rather than having it's own special sauce.
