mmap() is still not 100% safe when the client believes that the file has
changed on the server and needs to call invalidate_inode_pages2(): if
there is dirty data on the page when unmap_mapping_range() gets called,
then that dirty data may be lost (basically, we need a VM helper that
does unmap+flush+invalidate_page).
The attached patch may, however reduce the number of calls to
invalidate_inode_pages2() since it ensures that revalidations only occur
if and when we're going to read from the page cache (i.e. in places when
we _need_ the assurance that the page cache is valid).

NFS: Separate metadata and page cache revalidation mechanisms
From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@xxxxxxxxxx>
Separate out the function of revalidating the inode metadata, and
revalidating the mapping. The former may be called by lookup(),
and only really needs to check that permissions, ctime, etc haven't changed
whereas the latter needs only done when we want to read data from the page
cache, and may need to sync and then invalidate the mapping.
