mm/shmem: fix race in shmem_undo_range w/THP

Browse source

commit 55ac8bbe35 upstream.

Split folios during the second loop of shmem_undo_range.  It's not
sufficient to only split folios when dealing with partial pages, since
it's possible for a THP to be faulted in after that point.  Calling
truncate_inode_folio in that situation can result in throwing away data
outside of the range being targeted.
