[PATCH] mm, fs: avoid page allocation beyond i_size on read

["Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com>]

I've noticed that we allocated unneeded page for cache on read beyond
i_size. Simple test case (I checked it on ramfs):

$ touch testfile
$ cat testfile

It triggers 'no_cached_page' code path in do_generic_file_read().

Looks like it's regression since commit a32ea1e. Let's fix it.
