[PATCH] mm/filemap: Fix handling of THPs in generic_file_buffered_read()

["Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@infradead.org>]

When a THP is present in the page cache, we can return it several times,
leading to userspace seeing the same data repeatedly if doing a read()
that crosses a 64-page boundary.  This is probably not a security issue
(since the data all comes from the same file), but it can be interpreted
as a transient data corruption issue.  Fortunately, it is very rare as
it can only occur when CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS is enabled, and it can
only happen to executables.  We don't often call read() on executables.

This bug is fixed differently in v5.17 by commit 6b24ca4a1a8d
("mm: Use multi-index entries in the page cache").  That commit is
unsuitable for backporting, so fix this in the clearest way.  It
sacrifices a little performance for clarity, but this should never
be a performance path in these kernel versions.
