This is good just because it makes the most sense.  The only thing worse
than a bug is a bug that disappears for the wrong reasons ;)

This is also good because it really points to the invalidate.  You've
got zeros where we wrote 135168, and pretty much the only way to get
zeros on a disk block is if the kernel did a memset.  Sure some app
could have written the zeros there, but that block offset is unlikely to
get allocated as a data block by the other filesystems.

So, I'll go back to the invalidate code ;)
