When punching past EOF on XFS, fallocate(mode=PUNCH_HOLE|KEEP_SIZE) will
round the file size up to the nearest multiple of PAGE_SIZE:

Commit 3c2bdc912a1cc050 ("xfs: kill xfs_zero_remaining_bytes") replaced
xfs_zero_remaining_bytes() with calls to iomap helpers. The new helpers
don't enforce that [pos,offset) lies strictly on [0,i_size) when being
called from xfs_free_file_space(), so by "leaking" these ranges into
xfs_zero_range() we get this buggy behavior.

Fix this by reintroducing the checks xfs_zero_remaining_bytes() did
against i_size at the bottom of xfs_free_file_space().

I'd suggest to update the comment below with this information and move
the following bits down below it as well.

Will do.

+	if (offset >= XFS_ISIZE(ip))
+		return 0;
+
+	if ((offset + len) >= XFS_ISIZE(ip))
+		len = XFS_ISIZE(ip) - offset - 1;
+

This looks like an off-by-one. Do you mean the following?

	if (offset + len > XFS_ISIZE(ip))
		len = XFS_ISIZE(ip) - offset;

It's not an off-by-one (it's self-consistent), but your way makes more
sense, I'll fix it ;)

Thanks,
Calvin
