Many filesystems need a ->page-mkwrite callout to correctly set up pages that have been written to by mmap. This is especially important when mmap is writing into holes as it allows filesystems to correctly account for and allocate space before the mmap write is allowed to proceed. Protection against truncate races is provided by locking the page and checking to see whether the page mapping is correct and whether it is beyond EOF so we don't end up allowing allocations beyond the current EOF or changing EOF as a result of a mmap write.
