Hmm.. The only thing I see that could be causing an issue is the fact
that we're relying on cache invalidation to change the file size.
nfs_set_cache_invalid(
dst_inode, NFS_INO_REVAL_PAGECACHE | NFS_INO_REVAL_FORCED |
NFS_INO_INVALID_SIZE | NFS_INO_INVALID_ATTR |
NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA);
The only problem there is that nfs_set_cache_invalid() will clobber the
NFS_INO_INVALID_SIZE because if we hold a delegation, then our client
is the sole authority for the size attribute (hence we don't allow it
to be invalidated). We therefore expect a call to i_size_write(), if
the file size grew.
Otherwise, the setting of NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA should be redundant
because we've already punched a hole with truncate_pagecache_range().
