Subject[PATCH, RFC] xip: use i_mutex for xip_file_fault
From: Marco Stornelli <marco.stornelli@gmail.com>

There aren't sufficient sync points for a fs for xip operations. In
particular for the mmap case. It can be not sufficient to lock/unlock
to do some operation inside get_xip_mem callback. For xip_file_read
it's really easy to write a fs specific wrapper, xip_file_write hold
i_mutex so no problem. With this patch we can avoid concurrent truncate
operation and xip mmap.
