[PATCH 1/5] truncate: Zero bytes after 'oldsize' if we're expanding the file

["Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@infradead.org>]

POSIX requires that "If the file size is increased, the extended area
shall appear as if it were zero-filled".  It is possible to use mmap to
write past EOF and that data will become visible instead of zeroes.
This fixes the problem for the filesystems which simply call
truncate_setsize().  More complex filesystems will need their own
patches.
