Subject: [PATCH v2 04/18] ext4: Add ext4_break_layouts() to the inode
 eviction path

In preparation for moving DAX pages to be 0-based rather than 1-based
for the idle refcount, the fsdax core wants to have all mappings in a
"zapped" state before truncate. For typical pages this happens naturally
via unmap_mapping_range(), for DAX pages some help is needed to record
this state in the 'struct address_space' of the inode(s) where the page
is mapped.

That "zapped" state is recorded in DAX entries as a side effect of
ext4_break_layouts(). Arrange for it to be called before all truncation
events which already happens for truncate() and PUNCH_HOLE, but not
truncate_inode_pages_final(). Arrange for ext4_break_layouts() before
truncate_inode_pages_final().
