  Well, this wasn't meant as a final version of those patches. It was
meant as a request for comment whether it makes sence to fix the problem
how I propose to fix it. If we agree on that, I'll go and convert the rest
of filesystems so that we can remove .new_writepage hack. By that time I
hope that new truncate sequence patches will be merged so that dependency
should go away as well...
