+	 * The "we can't serialise against page faults" pain gets worse.
+	 *
+	 * If the file is mapped then we have to clean the page at the old EOF
+	 * when extending the file. Extending the file can expose changes the
+	 * underlying page mapping (e.g. from beyond EOF to a hole or
+	 * unwritten), and so on the next attempt to write to that page we need
+	 * to remap it for write. i.e. we need .page_mkwrite() to be called.
+	 * Hence we need to clean the page to clean the pte and so a new write
+	 * fault will be triggered appropriately.
+	 *
+	 * If we do it before we change the inode size, then we can race with a
+	 * page fault that maps the page with exactly the same problem. If we do
+	 * it after we change the file size, then a new page fault can come in
+	 * and allocate space before we've run the rest of the truncate
+	 * transaction. That's kinda grotesque, but it's better than have data
+	 * over a hole, and so that's the lesser evil that has been chosen here.
+	 *
+	 * The real solution, however, is to have some mechanism for locking out
+	 * page faults while a truncate is in progress.
