[PATCH 5.19 0425/1157] mm: Account dirty folios properly during splits
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Aug 15 2022 - 19:47:37 EST
From: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit fb5c2029f8221e904e604938171c4a8ef169aadb ]
If the last folio in a file is split as a result of truncation,
we simply clear the dirty bits for the pages we're discarding.
That causes NR_FILE_DIRTY (among other counters) to be thrown off
and eventually Linux will hang in balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited()
