3.13.11.5 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Scott Mayhew <smayhew@redhat.com>

commit 18dd78c427513fb0f89365138be66e6ee8700d1b upstream.

NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA cannot be ignored, even if we have a delegation.

We're still having some problems with data corruption when multiple
clients are appending to a file and those clients are being granted
write delegations on open.

To reproduce:

Client A:
vi /mnt/`hostname -s`
while :; do echo "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" >>/mnt/file; sleep $(( $RANDOM % 5 )); done

Client B:
vi /mnt/`hostname -s`
while :; do echo "YYYYYYYYYYYYYYY" >>/mnt/file; sleep $(( $RANDOM % 5 )); done

What's happening is that in nfs_update_inode() we're recognizing that
the file size has changed and we're setting NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA
accordingly, but then we ignore the cache_validity flags in
nfs_write_pageuptodate() because we have a delegation.  As a result,
in nfs_updatepage() we're extending the write to cover the full page
even though we've not read in the data to begin with.
