Fix the problem (BUG 4964) with unmapped buffers in transaction's
t_sync_data list. The problem is we need to call filesystem's own
invalidatepage() from block_write_full_page().
block_write_full_page() must call filesystem's invalidatepage(). Otherwise
following nasty race can happen:
proc 1 proc 2
------ ------
- write some new data to 'offset'
=> bh gets to the transactions data list
- starts truncate
=> i_size set to new size
- mpage_writepages()
- ext3_ordered_writepage() to 'offset'
- block_write_full_page()
- page->index > end_index+1
- block_invalidatepage()
- discard_buffer()
- clear_buffer_mapped()
- commit triggers and finds unmapped buffer - BOOM!
