*sigh*. I knew that once ... which was why the call was after dropping
the lock. OK, another try at fixing the problem; handle it down in the
insert_pfn code:

Understood! So this should work:

I realised that this isn't right. If you do a store to an mmaped file,
you should update the timestamps, whether or not the fs had to allocate
blocks. Hence the version above that only checks whether the fault is
for write or not.
