Subject: [PATCH 7/14] drm/i915: use shmem_truncate_range
Date: Sun, 5 Jun 2011 21:32:34 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LSU.2.00.1106052131080.17116@sister.anvils> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <alpine.LSU.2.00.1106052116350.17116@sister.anvils>

The interface to ->truncate_range is changing very slightly:
once "tmpfs: take control of its truncate_range" has been applied,
this can be applied.  For now there is only a slight inefficiency
while this remains unapplied, but it will soon become essential
for managing shmem's use of swap.

Change i915_gem_object_truncate() to use shmem_truncate_range()
directly: which should also spare i915 later change if we switch
from inode_operations->truncate_range to file_operations->fallocate.
