tmpfs: avoid a little creat and stat slowdown

LKP reports that v4.2 commit afa2db2f ("tmpfs: truncate prealloc
blocks past i_size") causes a 14.5% slowdown in the AIM9 creat-clo
benchmark.

creat-clo does just what you'd expect from the name, and creat's O_TRUNC
on 0-length file does indeed get into more overhead now shmem_setattr()
tests "0 <= 0" instead of "0 < 0".

I'm not sure how much we care, but I think it would not be too VW-like to
add in a check for whether any pages (or swap) are allocated: if none are
allocated, there's none to remove from the radix_tree.  At first I thought
that check would be good enough for the unmaps too, but no: we should not
skip the unlikely case of unmapping pages beyond the new EOF, which were
COWed from holes which have now been reclaimed, leaving none.

This gives me an 8.5% speedup: on Haswell instead of LKP's Westmere, and
running a debug config before and after: I hope those account for the
lesser speedup.

And probably someone has a benchmark where a thousand threads keep on
stat'ing the same file repeatedly: forestall that report by adjusting v4.3
commit 44a30220 ("shmem: recalculate file inode when fstat") not to
take the spinlock in shmem_getattr() when there's no work to do.
