First, this function truncates the file in chunks. When the original file size isn't block aligned, each chunk that is truncated will remain be misaligned. This is inefficient. Second, this function doesn't recognize where holes are, so it loops through them. For each chunk of a hole, it creates a new transaction. At least avoid creating another transactions whe the current one is still empty. (An better fix would be to skip large holes, of course.)

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
