From: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx> Subject: ocfs2: do not zero pages beyond i_size ocfs2_zero_range_for_truncate() can try to zero pages beyond current inode size despite the fact that underlying blocks should be already zeroed out and writeback will skip writing such pages anyway. Avoid the pointless work.
