  Modified:    sys/nfs   nfs_vnops.c
  Log:
  I believe that the following fix to nfs_vnops.c should do the trick w.r.t.
  the problem "when a file is truncated on the server after being written on
  a client under NFSv3, the client doesn't see the size drop to zero".
  (As you noted, the problem is that NMODIFIED wasn't being cleared by nfs_close
   when it flushed the buffers. After checking through the code, the only place
   where NMODIFIED was used to test for the possibility of dirty blocks was in
   nfs_setattr(). The two cases are safe to do when there aren't dirty blocks,
   so I just took out the tests. Unfortunately, testing for
   v_dirtyblkhd.lh_first being non-null is not sufficient, since there are
   times when the code moves blocks to the clean list and then back to the
   dirty list.)
