	When running ->fallocate(), blkdev_fallocate() should hold mapping->invalidate_lock to prevent page cache from being accessed, otherwise stale data may be read in page cache. Without this patch, blktests block/009 fails sometimes. With this patch, block/009 can pass always. Also as Jan pointed out, no pages can be created in the discarded area while you are holding the invalidate_lock, so remove the 2nd truncate_bdev_range().
