+/**
+ * do_invalidatepage - invalidate part of all of a page
+ * @page: the page which is affected
+ * @offset: the index of the truncation point
+ *
+ * do_invalidatepage() is called when all or part of the page has become
+ * invalidated by a truncate operation.
+ *
+ * do_invalidatepage() does not have to release all buffers, but it must
+ * ensure that no dirty buffer is left outside @offset and that no I/O
+ * is underway against any of the blocks which are outside the truncation
+ * point. Because the caller is about to free (and possibly reuse) those
+ * blocks on-disk.
