The attached patch should fix it. I haven't tested it against ext3, but
with tmpfs which used to have the same problem, i.e. not using
generic_file_ functions to access the container files. I'll pass it on
to Linus and Alan once I get some feedback on whether this solves all
problems. I believe this will fix the whole batch of problems that are
have been reported with ext3fs, XFS, and tmpfs.
It should apply fine for kernel versions 2.4.4 and higher (both the AC
and the Linus trees).
btw. my comment about disabling ext3 data journalling fixing it was
bogus, there was a BUG() in Coda that got triggered because f_op->write
wasn't generic_file_write.
