fs-writeback will release the dirty pages without page lock whose offset are over inode size, the release happens at block_write_full_page_endio(). If not update, dirty pages in file holes may be released before flushed to the disk, then file holes will contain some non-zero data, this will cause sparse file md5sum error. To reproduce the bug, find a big sparse file with many holes, like vm image file, its actual size should be bigger than available mem size to make writeback work more frequently, tar it with -S option, then keep untar it and check its md5sum again and again until you get a wrong md5sum.
