Thanks a lot! /me wonders if the "md5sum and drop caches" could be refactored a bit, but as a strict bugfix for always_cow mode this looks ok to me: Reviewed-by: Darrick J.

The way we decided if an unwritten extent is considered a hole or data is by checking if the page and/or blocks are marked uptodate, that is contain valid data in the page cache. xfs/420 and xfs/421 try to exercise SEEK_HOLE / SEEK_DATA in the presence of cowextsize preallocations over holes in the data fork. The current XFS code never actually uses those for buffer writes, but a pending patch changes that. For SEEK_HOLE / SEEK_DATA to work properly in that case we also need to look at the COW fork in their implementations and thus have to rely on the unwritten extent page cache probing. But the tests for it ensure we do have valid data in the pagecache by calling md5sum on the test files, and thus reading their contents (including the zero-filled holes) in, and thus making them all valid data. Fix that by dropping the page cache content after the md5sum calls.
