When we need to do EOF zeroing, we need to ensure that no other IO is in progress and all pending in-core EOF updates have been completed. This requires us to wait for all outstanding AIO DIO writes to the inode to complete and, if necessary, run their EOF updates. Once all the EOF updates are complete, we can then restart xfs_file_aio_write_checks() while holding the IOLOCK_EXCL, knowing that EOF is up to date and we have exclusive IO access to the file so we can run EOF block zeroing if we need to without interference. This gives EOF zeroing the same exclusivity against other IO as we provide truncate operations.
