I'm not sure why we need to preserve the pagecache beyond eof having
zeroed and then written the post-eof blocks out to disk, but I'm
guessing this is why you open-code truncate_setsize?

At this point I wonder if these three truncate cases (down, up, and
unchanged) should just be broken out into three helpers without so much
twisty logic.

xfs_setattr_truncate_down():
	xfs_truncate_page(..., &did_zeroing);

	if (did_zeroing || extending_ondisk_eof)
		filemap_write_and_wait_range(...);

	truncate_setsize(...); /* or your opencoded version */

xfs_setattr_truncate_up():
	xfs_zero_range(..., &did_zeroing);

	truncate_setsize(...);

	if (did_zeroing || extending_ondisk_eof)
		filemap_write_and_wait_range(...);

xfs_setattr_truncate_unchanged():
	truncate_setsize(...);

	if (extending_ondisk_eof)
		filemap_write_and_wait_range(...);

So then the callsite becomes:

	if (newsize > oldsize)
		xfs_settattr_truncate_up();
	else if (newsize < oldsize)
		xfs_setattr_truncate_down();
	else
		xfs_setattr_truncate_unchanged();

But, I dunno.  Most of the code is really just extensive commenting.
