mm: Account dirty folios properly during splits
If the last folio in a file is split as a result of truncation, we simply clear the dirty bits for the pages we're discarding. That causes NR_FILE_DIRTY (among other counters) to be thrown off and eventually Linux will hang in balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() Reported-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Tested-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Tested-by: Darrick J.
