If a file has a private mapping, then truncating the file's original logic
will only unmap it according to the shared mapping method, potentially
hitting:
refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.
kernel BUG at lib/refcount.c:34!
RIP: 0010:refcount_warn_saturate+0xf0/0x110 lib/refcount.c:34

Add logic to handle the unmapping of private mappings.
