Subject: mm: shmem: don't truncate page if memory failure happens
The current behavior of memory failure is to truncate the page cache
regardless of dirty or clean. If the page is dirty the later access will
get the obsolete data from disk without any notification to the users.
This may cause silent data loss. It is even worse for shmem since shmem
is in-memory filesystem, truncating page cache means discarding data
blocks. The later read would return all zero.
The right approach is to keep the corrupted page in page cache, any later
access would return error for syscalls or SIGBUS for page fault, until the
file is truncated, hole punched or removed. The regular storage backed
filesystems would be more complicated so this patch is focused on shmem.
This also unblock the support for soft offlining shmem THP.
