Hmm. I wonder what makes it valid to have concurrent updates to i_size? Yes, yes, you added that spinlock to make the update itself atomic on 32-bit, but it sounds a bit odd in the first place to have two things possibly changing the size of a file at the same time...
Anyway, pulled, but just surprised...
