Sure, so how about this?

		/* Reuse the already created COW inode */
		if (get_dirty_pages(fi->cow_inode)) {
			ret = filemap_write_and_wait(fi->cow_inode->i_mapping);
			if (ret) {
				f2fs_up_write(&fi->i_gc_rwsem[WRITE]);
				goto out;
			}
		}

		truncate_inode_pages(fi->cow_inode->i_mapping, 0);

		ret = f2fs_do_truncate_blocks(fi->cow_inode, 0, true);
		if (ret) {
			f2fs_up_write(&fi->i_gc_rwsem[WRITE]);
			goto out;
		}

		i_size_write(fi->cow_inode, 0);

Thanks,
