Bug description:
  Sometimes when writing to sparse files the file size isn't updated
  properly resulting in lost data at the end of the file.  This has been
  fixed in 3.8rc7 and the fix from the btrfs devs  is committed here:
  https://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/josef/btrfs-
  next.git;a=commit;h=d468abec6b9fd7132d012d33573ecb8056c7c43f  This
  patch should apply cleanly and would be trivial to backport to recent
  ubuntu release kernels.
