One of the rocksdb people noticed that when you do something like this
fallocate(fd, FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE, 0, 10M)
pwrite(fd, buf, 5M, 0)
ftruncate(5M)
on tmpfs the file would still take up 10M, which lead to super fun issues
because we were getting ENOSPC before we thought we should be getting ENOSPC.
This patch fixes the problem, and mirrors what all the other fs'es do. I tested
it locally to make sure it worked properly with the following
xfs_io -f -c "falloc -k 0 10M" -c "pwrite 0 5M" -c "truncate 5M" file
Without the patch we have "Blocks: 20480", with the patch we have the correct
value of "Blocks: 10240". Thanks,
