9 ext4: Automatically allocate delay allocated blocks on close
10
11 When closing a file that had been previously truncated, force any
12 delay allocated blocks that to be allocated so that if the filesystem
13 is mounted with data=ordered, the data blocks will be pushed out to
14 disk along with the journal commit. Many application programs expect
15 this, so we do this to avoid zero length files if the system crashes
16 unexpectedly.
