cifs: truncate fallout

Browse source

Remove the calls to inode_newsize_ok given that we already did it as
part of inode_change_ok in the beginning of cifs_setattr_(no)unix.

No need to call ->truncate if cifs doesn't have one, so remove the
explicit call in cifs_vmtruncate, and replace the calls to vmtruncate
with truncate_setsize which is vmtruncate minus inode_newsize_ok
and the call to ->truncate.

Rename cifs_vmtruncate to cifs_setsize to match the new calling conventions.

Question 1:  why does cifs do the pagecache munging and i_size update twice
	for each setattr call, once opencoded in cifs_vmtruncate, and once
	using the VFS helpers?
Question 2: what is supposed to be protected by i_lock in cifs_vmtruncate?
	Do we need it around the call to inode_change_ok?
