It's easy to reproduce because the iomap's buffered write path doesn't hold folio lock while inserting delalloc blocks, so it could be raced by the mmap page fault path. But the buffer_head's buffered write path can't trigger this problem, the race between buffered write path and fallocate path was discovered while I was analyzing the code, so I'm not sure if it could be caught by xfstests now, at least I haven't noticed this problem so far. >> I have reworded some of the commit message, feel free to use it if you >> think this version is better.
