xfs: fix rounding in xfs_free_file_space

Browse source

The offset passed into xfs_free_file_space() needs to be rounded
down to a certain size, but the rounding mask is built by a 32 bit
variable. Hence the mask will always mask off the upper 32 bits of
the offset and lead to incorrect writeback and invalidation ranges.

This is not actually exposed as a bug because we writeback and
invalidate from the rounded offset to the end of the file, and hence
the offset we are actually punching a hole out of will always be
covered by the code. This needs fixing, however, if we ever want to
use exact ranges for writeback/invalidation here...
