Hello,

This is the third version fixing data loss when truncating straddling
large folios caught on the upcomming ext4 + iomap buffered I/O
conversion[1]. I've clarify the split logic as Joanne and Brian
suggested, also slove the concurrent issue pointed out by sashiko and
split the patch into 3 small ones as Zi Yan suggested.

Patch 1: Add pstart and pend parameters to
         truncate_inode_partial_folio() and fix the data loss issue when
         the second splitting straddling large folios fails.
Patch 2: Fix the similar data loss issue also could encountered on the
         filesystem with min_order > 0.
Patch 3: Clarify the existing confusing return value of
         truncate_inode_partial_folio().

Thanks,
Yi.

v2->v3:
 - Rework the folio2 validity check logic to fix the invalid
   folio->index issue. (sashiko)
 - Clarify the pstart and pend setting logic and the corresponding
   comments to make it more readable. (Brian, Joanne)
 - Split the patch into 3 small patches. (Zi Yan)
v1->v2:
 - Export pstart as a new parameter so that the generic and shmem
   truncate paths don't need to recompute the start value from the
   return value. (Brian)
 - When min_order is nonzero, align [pstart, pend] to the inner
   boundaries of the folio to ensure they do not point into the middle
   of a large folio, which could otherwise cause valid data within the
   folio to be incorrectly cleared. (Joanne)
