Qu Wenruo 0528476b6a btrfs: fix the filemap_range_has_page() call in btrfs_punch_hole_lock_range()
[BUG]
With current subpage RW support, the following script can hang the fs
with 64K page size.

 # mkfs.btrfs -f -s 4k $dev
 # mount $dev -o nospace_cache $mnt
 # fsstress -w -n 50 -p 1 -s 1607749395 -d $mnt

The kernel will do an infinite loop in btrfs_punch_hole_lock_range().

[CAUSE]
In btrfs_punch_hole_lock_range() we:

- Truncate page cache range
- Lock extent io tree
- Wait any ordered extents in the range.

We exit the loop until we meet all the following conditions:

- No ordered extent in the lock range
- No page is in the lock range

The latter condition has a pitfall, it only works for sector size ==
PAGE_SIZE case.

While can't handle the following subpage case:

  0       32K     64K     96K     128K
  |       |///////||//////|       ||

lockstart=32K
lockend=96K - 1

In this case, although the range crosses 2 pages,
truncate_pagecache_range() will invalidate no page at all, but only zero
the [32K, 96K) range of the two pages.

Thus filemap_range_has_page(32K, 96K-1) will always return true, thus we
will never meet the loop exit condition.

[FIX]
Fix the problem by doing page alignment for the lock range.

Function filemap_range_has_page() has already handled lend < lstart
case, we only need to round up @lockstart, and round_down @lockend for
truncate_pagecache_range().

This modification should not change any thing for sector size ==
PAGE_SIZE case, as in that case our range is already page aligned.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
