-        ->truncate() is never called directly - it's a callback, not a
-method. It's called by vmtruncate() - deprecated library function used by
-->setattr(). Locking information above applies to that call (i.e. is
-inherited from ->setattr() - vmtruncate() is used when ATTR_SIZE had been
-passed).
 
 See Documentation/filesystems/directory-locking for more detailed discussion
 of the locking scheme for directory operations.
