The critical patch to review here is patch 11, "Handle truncates that
split THPs".  This code is shared with shmem, and while xfstests passes
(both with the tmpfs filesystem and with THPs enabled for XFS), it is
terribly subtle.

I posted a similar patch series a few weeks ago [1], but this goes a few
steps further than that one did.  In addition to the unification of
find_get_entries() and pagevec_lookup_entries(), this patch series
includes:

 - Only return the head pages from tagged lookups
 - Factor a lot of common code out of the various batch lookup routines
 - Add mapping_seek_hole_data()
 - Only return head pages from find_get_entries

I also have a patch to iomap to use mapping_seek_hole_data(), but I'm
not including that as part of this batch of patches -- I'll send it
through the iomap tree once mapping_seek_hole_data() lands upstream.
