From: Anthony Romano <anthony.romano@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: tmpfs: don't undo fallocate past its last page
When fallocate is interrupted it will undo a range that extends one byte
past its range of allocated pages. This can corrupt an in-use page by
zeroing out its first byte. Instead, undo using the inclusive byte range.
Fixes: 1635f6a74152f1d ("tmpfs: undo fallocation on failure")
