This usually happens when an application mixes mmap access and
direct IO to the same file. The warning fires when the direct IO
cannot invalidate the cached range after writeback (e.g. writeback
raced with mmap app faulting and dirtying the page again), and hence
results in the page cache containing stale data.  This warning fires
when that happens, indicating to developers who get a bug report
about data corruption that it's the userspace application that is
the problem, not the filesystem. i.e the application is doing
something we explicitly document they should not do:

$ man 2 open
....
  O_DIRECT
....
       Applications should avoid mixing O_DIRECT and normal I/O to
       the same file, and especially to overlapping byte regions in
       the  same  file.   Even  when  the filesystem  correctly
       handles the coherency issues in this situation, overall I/O
       throughput is likely to be slower than using either mode
       alone.  Likewise, applications should avoid mixing mmap(2) of
       files with direct I/O to the same files.

Splice should not have this problem if the IO path locking is
correct, as both direct IO and splice IO use the same inode lock for
exclusion. i.e. splice write should not be running at the same time
as a direct IO read or write....

Cheers,

Dave.
