[PATCH] shmem: clamp negative used-block samples in statfs

[Hungyu Lin <dennylin0707@gmail.com>]

percpu_counter_sum() holds the counter lock while scanning the per-CPU
values, but local updates can still proceed. Concurrent allocation and
freeing on different CPUs can therefore produce a negative sample even
though the number of used tmpfs blocks cannot be negative.

shmem_statfs() subtracts this sample from max_blocks, reporting more free
blocks than the filesystem's total. With a one-page file being written
and truncated on separate CPUs, GNU df reports negative used space, for
example 67108864 total bytes, -28672 used and 67137536 available.

Use percpu_counter_sum_positive() to clamp a negative sample to zero.
This retains the approximate accounting and does not change allocation
or limit enforcement.
