Good catch. However implementation looks like strange a bit.

We can't use "static" for fat_block_truncate_page()?

Let's remove block alignment, because it was done in block_truncate_page().
Then, move fat_block_truncate_page() before truncate_setsize(). 
Looks like other fs calls it before truncate_setsize().
