When zone reset ioctl and data read race for a same zone on zoned block
devices, the data read leaves stale page cache even though the zone
reset ioctl zero clears all the zone data on the device. To avoid
non-zero data read from the stale page cache after zone reset, discard
page cache of reset target zones. In same manner as fallocate, call the
function truncate_bdev_range() in blkdev_zone_mgmt_ioctl() before and
after zone reset to ensure the page cache discarded.
This patch can be applied back to the stable kernel version v5.10.y.
Rework is needed for older stable kernels.
