From 25d9e2d15286281ec834b829a4aaf8969011f1cd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "npiggin@suse.de" Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2009 02:35:05 +1000 Subject: truncate: new helpers Introduce new truncate helpers truncate_pagecache and inode_newsize_ok. vmtruncate is also consolidated from mm/memory.c and mm/nommu.c and into mm/truncate.c.
