If size of file was reduced, we still kept allocated blocks.
This commit makes ntfs3 work as other fs like btrfs.

I also added to loop here. Ganapathi can you test if this patch fix your
problem?

Yeah. Patch was meant for ntfs3/master...

but with your change it also applies to rc3. Your change was correct and
it was totally ok to test top of rc3.

I do not know if you used -j flag when making. Just if you did not know
about it use:

  make -j8

This will example use 8 threads for compiling. You choose number based
on how many threads you have in your processor.

Ntfs file structure allows actually many things which even Windows does
not understand. This is new driver and it will be evolving that user can
decide what he wants. We will also have to define good defaults so that
user get good experience.

This was bug. Thanks for reporting and testing it.  We really appriciate
it. This is new driver and there will be bugs so early users who report
bugs and are even willing to test patches are gold mine for us.

We will also add tags to patch:
Reported-by: Ganapathi Kamath <hgkamath@hotmail.com>
Tested-by: Ganapathi Kamath <hgkamath@hotmail.com>

if it ok to you. This way if you report new bugs to kernel people will
know you are good reporter as you have also tested what you have
reported. If you wanna know more about these tags see [1].
