I've just tested this fix and can confirm it does fix the problem. After
this patch the file sizes reported in the truncate code are correct and do
decrement at the rate of 8MiB/s.

xfs is releasing the free space back immediately and even with all 3 dvb
cards recording simultaneously the free space is still increasing.

Cheers,
