[PATCH 4.11 105/150] excessive checks in ufs_write_failed() and ufs_evict_inode()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.11-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit babef37dccbaa49249a22bae9150686815d7be71 upstream.

As it is, short copy in write() to append-only file will fail
to truncate the excessive allocated blocks.  As the matter of
fact, all checks in ufs_truncate_blocks() are either redundant
or wrong for that caller.  As for the only other caller
(ufs_evict_inode()), we only need the file type checks there.
