Umm, this is not a new problem but with THP pagecache it will become more
visible: When we punch holes within a file like <0..2MB>, <2MB-4MB>
(presuming 4 MB hugepages), then we won't free the underlying huge page for
the range 0..4MB. Maybe for initial implementation is doesn't matter but we
should at least note it in truncate_inode_pages_range() so that people are
aware of this.
Otherwise the patch looks OK to me. So you can add:
