xfs: reorder zeroing and flushing sequence in truncate
Currently zeroing out blocks and waiting for writeout is a bit of a mess in
truncate. This patch gives it a clear order in preparation for the iomap
path:
(1) we first wait for any direct I/O to complete to prevent any races
for it
(2) we then perform the actual zeroing, and only use the truncate_page
helpers for truncating down. The truncate up case already is
handled by the separate call to xfs_zero_eof.
(3) only then we write back dirty data, as zeroing block may cause
dirty pages when using either xfs_zero_eof or the new iomap
infrastructure.
