That's this..

 987         ret = filemap_write_and_wait_range(mapping, start, end);
 988         if (ret)
 989                 goto out_free_dio;
 990 
 991         ret = invalidate_inode_pages2_range(mapping,
 992                         start >> PAGE_SHIFT, end >> PAGE_SHIFT);
 993         WARN_ON_ONCE(ret);


Plot thickens..
