Can you test with the below patch

Commit 487caeef9fc08c0565e082c40a8aaf58dad92bbb fixed a deadlock
between get_block and truncate by dropping the i_data_sem during
truncate. But i guess we should make sure we drop any preallocation
that we did as a part of the block allocation. Otherwise we definitely
can get multiple claimed blocks. But this can happen only if we have
block allocation and truncate happening on the same file simultaneously.

With delayed allocation i guess it is possible that pdflush tries to do
block allocation while application does a truncate
