Hi Boaz,

I don't have any git trees published. Apart from merging the patch by
hand, I should hope it goes upstream with Al's vfs merge.

If you've got patches based on the previous patchset in Al's tree,
then it is identical except that we don't switch those helper functions
with the .truncate_kludge = 1 flag but instead use _newtrunc variants.

Thanks,
Nick
