Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: [PATCH] holepunch: fix shmem_truncate_range punch locking
Problem Details: Miklos Szeredi observes that during truncation of shmem page directories, info->lock is released to improve latency (after lowering i_size and next_index to exclude races); but this is quite wrong for holepunching, which receives no such protection from i_size or next_index, and is left vulnerable to r...
