[PATCH 16/16] mm/shmem: fix truncation of files containing only swapin-error markers

["David Hildenbrand (Arm)" <david@kernel.org>]

It might not be very common, but we can end up with shmem files that are
composed only of swapin-error/poison markers.

Such markers are not counted in info->alloced. Consequently,
shmem_setattr() can skip shmem_truncate_range(), leaving the markers
behind.

Truncating the file to zero and growing it again will result in reads
failing with -EIO instead of returning zeroes.

Check whether the mapping contains entries, in addition to
info->alloced, before skipping the truncation. Keep the info->alloced
check so that shmem_recalc_inode(), called at the end of
shmem_undo_range(), can fix up accounting after reclaim has emptied the
mapping.
