Subject: mm: consistent truncate and invalidate loops
From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx>

Make the pagevec_lookup loops in truncate_inode_pages_range(),
invalidate_mapping_pages() and invalidate_inode_pages2_range() more
consistent with each other.

They were relying upon page->index of an unlocked page, but apologizing
for it: accept it, embrace it, add comments and WARN_ONs, and simplify the
index handling.

invalidate_inode_pages2_range() had special handling for a wrapped
page->index + 1 = 0 case; but MAX_LFS_FILESIZE doesn't let us anywhere
near there, and a corrupt page->index in the radix_tree could cause more
trouble than that would catch.  Remove that wrapped handling.

invalidate_inode_pages2_range() uses min() to limit the pagevec_lookup
when near the end of the range: copy that into the other two, although
it's less useful than you might think (it limits the use of the buffer,
rather than the indices looked up).
