I'm not quite sure why even 1 sync is needed. :(
I'm not sure what bug this is trying to test; if you need 2 syncs for global space stats to accurately reflect the fact that you chopped off the end of a block, maybe that's ... still a bug?
Or if it's just the big-hammer question of "does the truncated space *ever* get freed?" then maybe umount/remount/check would tell you that more definitively.
