From: Ritesh Harjani (IBM) <ritesh.list@xxxxxxxxx> commit c2a09f3d782de952f09a3962d03b939e7fa7ffa4 upstream. Truncate operation can race with writeback, in which inode->i_size can get truncated and therefore size - folio_pos() can be negative. This fixes the len calculation. However this path doesn't get easily triggered even with data journaling.
