Fix afs_invalidatepage() to adjust the dirty region recorded in
page->private when truncating a page. If the dirty region is entirely
removed, then the private data is cleared and the page dirty state is
cleared.
Without this, if the page is truncated and then expanded again by truncate,
zeros from the expanded, but no-longer dirty region may get written back to
the server if the page gets laundered due to a conflicting 3rd-party write.
It mustn't, however, shorten the dirty region of the page if that page is
still mmapped and has been marked dirty by afs_page_mkwrite(), so a flag is
stored in page->private to record this.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
