xfs: flush eof folio before insert range size update
The flush in xfs_buffered_write_iomap_begin() for zero range over a
data fork hole fronted by COW fork prealloc is primarily designed to
provide correct zeroing behavior in particular pagecache conditions.
As it turns out, this also partially masks some odd behavior in
insert range (via zero range via setattr).
Insert range bumps i_size the length of the new range, flushes,
unmaps pagecache and cancels COW prealloc, and then right shifts
extents from the end of the file back to the target offset of the
insert. Since the i_size update occurs before the pagecache flush,
this creates a transient situation where writeback around EOF can
behave differently.
This appears to be corner case situation, but if happens to be
fronted by COW fork speculative preallocation and a large, dirty
folio that contains at least one full COW block beyond EOF, the
writeback after i_size is bumped may remap that COW fork block into
the data fork within EOF. The block is zeroed and then shifted back
out to post-eof, but this is unexpected in that it leads to a
written post-eof data fork block. This can cause a zero range
warning on a subsequent size extension, because we should never find
blocks that require physical zeroing beyond i_size.
To avoid this quirk, flush the EOF folio before the i_size update
during insert range. The entire range will be flushed, unmapped and
invalidated anyways, so this should be relatively unnoticeable.
