udf: Fix race between write(2) and close(2)
Currently write(2) updating i_size and close(2) of the file can race in
such a way that udf_truncate_tail_extent() called from
udf_file_release() sees old i_size but already new extents added by the
running write call. This results in complaints like:
UDF-fs: warning (device vdb2): udf_truncate_tail_extent: Too long extent
after EOF in inode 877: i_size: 0 lbcount: 1073739776 extent 0+1073739776
UDF-fs: error (device vdb2): udf_truncate_tail_extent: Extent after EOF
in inode 877
Fix the problem by grabbing i_mutex in udf_file_release() to be sure
i_size is consistent with current state of extent list. Also avoid
truncating tail extent unnecessarily when the file is still open for
writing.
