I think this is slightly misleading because we might well zero-fill
to the end of the folio.  The issue is that we're supposed to SIGBUS
if userspace accesses pages which lie entirely beyond the end of this
file.  Can you rephrase this?

(from mmap(2))
       SIGBUS Attempted access to a page of the buffer that lies beyond the end
              of the mapped file.  For an explanation of the treatment  of  the
              bytes  in  the  page that corresponds to the end of a mapped file
              that is not a multiple of the page size, see NOTES.


The code is good though.
