Evgeniy Dushistov 10e5dce07e [PATCH] ufs: truncate should allocate block for last byte
This patch fixes buggy behaviour of UFS
in such kind of scenario:
open(, O_TRUNC...)
ftruncate(, 1024)
ftruncate(, 0)

Such a scenario causes ufs_panic and remount read-only.  This happen
because of according to specification UFS should always allocate block for
last byte, and many parts of our implementation rely on this, but
`ufs_truncate' doesn't care about this.

To make possible return error code and to know about old size, this patch
removes `truncate' from ufs inode_operations and uses `setattr' method to
call ufs_truncate.
