iomap: readpages doesn't zero page tail beyond EOF

When we read the EOF page of the file via readpages, we need
to zero the region beyond EOF that we either do not read or
should not contain data so that mmap does not expose stale data to
user applications.

However, iomap_adjust_read_range() fails to detect EOF correctly,
and so fsx on 1k block size filesystems fails very quickly with
mapreads exposing data beyond EOF. There are two problems here.

Firstly, when calculating the end block of the EOF byte, we have
to round the size by one to avoid a block aligned EOF from reporting
a block too large. i.e. a size of 1024 bytes is 1 block, which in
index terms is block 0. Therefore we have to calculate the end block
from (isize - 1), not isize.

The second bug is determining if the current page spans EOF, and so
whether we need split it into two half, one for the IO, and the
other for zeroing. Unfortunately, the code that checks whether
we should split the block doesn't actually check if we span EOF, it
just checks if the read spans the /offset in the page/ that EOF
sits on. So it splits every read into two if EOF is not page
aligned, regardless of whether we are reading the EOF block or not.

Hence we need to restrict the "does the read span EOF" check to
just the page that spans EOF, not every page we read.

This patch results in correct EOF detection through readpages:

As you can see, it now does full page reads until the last one which
is split correctly at the block aligned EOF, reading 3072 bytes and
zeroing the last 1024 bytes. The original version of the patch got
this right, but it got another case wrong.

The EOF detection crossing really needs to the the original length
as plen, while it starts at the end of the block, will be shortened
as up-to-date blocks are found on the page. This means "orig_pos +
plen" no longer points to the end of the page, and so will not
correctly detect EOF crossing. Hence we have to use the length
passed in to detect this partial page case:

xfs_filemap_fault:    dev 259:1 ino 0x43  write_fault 0
xfs_vm_readpage:      dev 259:1 ino 0x43 nr_pages 1
xfs_iomap_found:      dev 259:1 ino 0x43 size 0x2cc00 offset 0x2c000 count 4096 type hole startoff 0xb0 startblock 282 blockcount 0x4
iomap_readpage_actor: orig pos 180224 pos 181248, length 4096, poff 1024 plen 2048, isize 183296
xfs_iomap_found:      dev 259:1 ino 0x43 size 0x2cc00 offset 0x2cc00 count 1024 type hole startoff 0xb3 startblock 285 blockcount 0x1
iomap_readpage_actor: orig pos 183296 pos 183296, length 1024, poff 3072 plen 1024, isize 183296

Heere we see a trace where the first block on the EOF page is up to
date, hence poff = 1024 bytes. The offset into the page of EOF is
3072, so the range we want to read is 1024 - 3071, and the range we
want to zero is 3072 - 4095. You can see this is split correctly
now.

This fixes the stale data beyond EOF problem that fsx quickly
uncovers on 1k block size filesystems.
