What about that? Obvious patch that got no objections from anybody and
AFAICS got in -rc3:
; git-whatchanged fs/hostfs/hostfs_kern.c|head

[PATCH] uml: remove empty hostfs_truncate method
Calling truncate() on hostfs spits a kernel warning "Something isn't
implemented here", but it still works fine.
Indeed, hostfs i_op->truncate doesn't do anything. But hostfs_setattr() ->
;
Judging by Signed-off-by it looks like a -mm -> Linus merge...
