Yes it would.

OK good.

No that's right. But ext2 already had been calling into vmtruncate
without i_alloc_sem (via vmtruncate in write(2) path for trimming
blocks)... hmm, maybe that was a bug itself, though (OTOH, maybe
it doesn't matter because direct IO should not get to blocks
past i_size).

Yes that's better.
