ocfs2 already calls inode_newsize_ok earlier during ocfs2_setattr,
and there's an XXX comment just above the vmtruncate call about
how ocfs2 hacks around this. I suspect you just want a plain
truncate_setsize here and remove the comment above it, but I'd
like to have the ocfs2 folks confirm that.



Yep, I quite agree. truncate_setsize can be moved up into to the previous "if (size_change && attr->ia_size != i_size_read(inode))" where the truncate code does its work.
