Subject: xfs: Move handling of missing page into one place in xfs_find_get_desired_pgoff()

From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

commit a54fba8f5a0dc36161cacdf2aa90f007f702ec1a upstream.

Currently several places in xfs_find_get_desired_pgoff() handle the case
of a missing page. Make them all handled in one place after the loop has
terminated.
