From: "Milton D. Miller II" <miltonm@realtime.net> The code at present has a small problem: when a fault is encountered we will run commit_write() to cover the amount of data which was successfully copied in from userspace. But filemap_copy_from_user() may have zeroed out some more of the page. So pagecache now has zeroes and the buffer_head which represents those zeroes is not dirtied. So a subsequent eviction and re-read of the file in the window beyond the faulting offset will return the file's old contents and not the zeroes. So we change filemap_copy_from_user_iovec() to have the same behaviour as the non-iovec filemap_copy_from_user(), and ensure that the commit_write() covers the parts of the page which copy_from_user() zeroed out.
