But mm can drop clean page without notifying shmem. This makes fstat sometimes return out-of-date block size. The problem can be partially solved when we add inode_operations->getattr which calls shmem_recalc_inode to update i_blocks for fstat. shmem_recalc_inode also updates counter used by statfs and vm_committed_as. For them the situation is not changed. They still suffer from the discrepancy after dropping clean page and before the function is called by aforementioned triggers.
