Agree. Please see below.

For normal inode, all dirty pages will not be written out, and after that pages
can be reclaimed by VM any time due to they are be cleaned when flush. Then any
process who held the orphan inode may not read any original data correctly from
this inode.

And here is the unlink description in POSIX:
"If one or more processes have the file open when the last link is removed,
the link shall be removed before unlink() returns, but the removal of the
file contents shall be postponed until all references to the file are closed."

To my understanding for above description, we should keep data of helded orphan
inode in memory or on disk until it is not referenced by any processes.

How do you think of it?

using "if (is_orphan_inode(sbi, inode->i_ino) && !atomic_read(&inode->i_count))"
to skip writing at the beginning of ->writepage()?

Thanks,
