HWPOISON: Refactor truncate to allow direct truncating of page v3
From: Nick Piggin <npiggin@...e.de>

Extract out truncate_inode_page() out of the truncate path so that
it can be used by memory-failure.c

[AK: description, headers, fix typos]
v2: Some white space changes from Fengguang Wu 
v3: add comments
