Hello all!
I usually dig around kernel code to find answers, but I think this would take
alot more time to dig than to explain from someone.
Process 1 opens a file x, and does a read on the first few bytes, which in
turn causes kernel to load the first page from the file (if the filesystem is
using address_space_operations for all of it's access to files)
Now a process 2 opens the same file and overwrites a few first bytes.
Now, how does the kernel update the Process 1's page if it is already loaded?
