Right, I think we need to set nbytes to new file->pos as shown below

Yeah this make more sense to me that we can directly call
SharedFileSetDeleteAll, instead of calling BufFileDeleteShared and we
can call SharedFileSetUnregister from SharedFileSetDeleteAll.
I will make these changes and send the patch after some testing.
