Me too.  The patch this one enables is rather sad.  It's yet another
reminder that we suck at streaming workloads.  But until we fix that,
don't you want to use invalidate_inode_pages2_range() rather than
truncate_inode_pages_range()?  If your send conflicts with someone
else's write(), you'll erase their write to the page cache.
