Otherwise, if the race between page fault and truncate occurs, it
will cause the page fault routine to return an EIO error.
In filemap_fault() {
page_not_uptodate:
...
ClearPageError(page);
error = mapping->a_ops->readpage(file, page);
if (!error) {
wait_on_page_locked(page);
if (!PageUptodate(page))
error = -EIO;
}
...
}
However, I tend to think this is a defect in kernel implementation,
because it assumes PageUptodate shouldn't be cleared but file read
routine doesn't make the same assumption.
