[PATCH] f2fs: fix i_size when pinned fallocate partially fails

Commit 4275b59673eb ("f2fs: fix to round down start offset of fallocate
for pin file") moved the allocation loop's start down to a section
boundary, but the error path still converts @expanded against @pg_start,
which holds the unrounded start.
@pg_start exists for that conversion: commit 88f2cfc5fa90 ("f2fs: fix to
update last i_size if fallocate partially succeeds") added it as an
immutable base because map.m_lblk moves every round. Each round now maps
exactly sec_blks blocks starting from rounddown(pg_start, sec_blks), so
pg_start + expanded overshoots the last allocated block by
pg_start % sec_blks, and a partial failure leaves i_size covering a tail
that was never allocated. Nothing corrects that afterwards either, since
file_dont_truncate() has already cleared FADVISE_TRUNC_BIT.
Keep @pg_start pointing at where allocation actually begins.
