[PATCH] fat: support a truncate() for expanding size (generic_cont_expand)
This patch changes generic_cont_expand(), in order to share the code with fatfs. - Use vmtruncate() if ->prepare_write() returns a error. Even if ->prepare_write() returns an error, it may already have added some blocks. So, this truncates blocks outside of ->i_size by vmtruncate(). - Add generic_cont_expand_simple(). The generic_cont_expand_simple() assumes that ->prepare_write() can handle the block boundary. With this, we don't need to care the extra byte. And for expanding a file size by truncate(), fatfs uses the added generic_cont_expand_simple().
