2.6.35's new truncate convention gave tmpfs the opportunity to control
its file truncation, no longer enforced from outside by vmtruncate().
We shall want to build upon that, to handle pagecache and swap together.
Slightly redefine the ->truncate_range interface, so far implemented
only by tmpfs to support madvise(,,MADV_REMOVE). Let it now be called
between the unmap_mapping_range()s, with the filesystem responsible for
doing the truncate_inode_pages_range() from it - just as the filesystem
is nowadays responsible for doing that from its ->setattr.
Let's rename shmem_notify_change() to shmem_setattr(). Instead of
calling the generic truncate_setsize(), bring that code in so we can
call shmem_truncate_range() - which will later be updated to perform
its own variant of truncate_inode_pages_range().
Remove the punch_hole unmap_mapping_range() from shmem_truncate_range():
now that the COW's unmap_mapping_range() comes after ->truncate_range,
there's no need to call it a third time.
Note that drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c i915_gem_object_truncate()
calls the tmpfs ->truncate_range directly: update that in a separate
patch later, for now just let it duplicate the truncate_inode_pages().
Because i915 handles unmap_mapping_range() itself at a different stage,
we have chosen not to bundle that into ->truncate_range.

I notice that ext4 is now joining ocfs2 and xfs in supporting fallocate
FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE: perhaps they should support truncate_range, and
tmpfs should support fallocate? But worry about that another time...
