Current GFS2 setattr call unconditionally invokes do_shrink even the 
requested size and actual file size are equal. This has generated large 
amount of extra IOs found during NFS benchmark runs. This patch moves 
the relevant logic out of shrink code path. Since setattr is a system 
call, the time stamps update is still required.
