Hello Oleg,

That's an excellent catch. With your previous patch and this patch
applied I can't reproduce the hang in truncate_inode_pages_range()
anymore. I still see some other wait_on_page_bit() hangs after an I/O
error has occurred. However, the hangs that I still see are related to
waiting on buffer head state changes and not on the PG_locked page flag.

Thanks,

Bart.
