Subject: mm: filemap: fix nr_pages calculation overflow in filemap_map_pages()

When running stress-ng on my Arm64 machine with v7.0-rc3 kernel, I
encountered some very strange crash issues showing up as "Bad page state":

"
[  734.496287] BUG: Bad page state in process stress-ng-env  pfn:415735fb

[  734.496442] page dumped because: nonzero mapcount
"

After analyzing this page's state, it is hard to understand why the
mapcount is not 0 while the refcount is 0, since this page is not where
the issue first occurred.  By enabling the CONFIG_DEBUG_VM config, I can
reproduce the crash as well and captured the first warning where the issue
appears:

"

The code that triggers the warning is: "VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO(page_folio(page +
nr_pages - 1) != folio, folio)", which indicates that set_pte_range()
tried to map beyond the large folio's size.

By adding more debug information, I found that 'nr_pages' had overflowed
in filemap_map_pages(), causing set_pte_range() to establish mappings for
a range exceeding the folio size, potentially corrupting fields of pages
that do not belong to this folio (e.g., page->_mapcount).

After above analysis, I think the possible race is as follows:

CPU 0                                                  CPU 1
filemap_map_pages()                                   ext4_setattr()
   //get and lock folio with old inode->i_size
   next_uptodate_folio()

                                                          .......
                                                          //shrink the inode->i_size
                                                          i_size_write(inode, attr->ia_size);

   //calculate the end_pgoff with the new inode->i_size
   file_end = DIV_ROUND_UP(i_size_read(mapping->host), PAGE_SIZE) - 1;
   end_pgoff = min(end_pgoff, file_end);

   ......
   //nr_pages can be overflowed, cause xas.xa_index > end_pgoff
   end = folio_next_index(folio) - 1;
   nr_pages = min(end, end_pgoff) - xas.xa_index + 1;

   ......
   //map large folio
   filemap_map_folio_range()
                                                          ......
                                                          //truncate folios
                                                          truncate_pagecache(inode, inode->i_size);

To fix this issue, move the 'end_pgoff' calculation before
next_uptodate_folio(), so the retrieved folio stays consistent with the
file end to avoid 'nr_pages' calculation overflow.  After this patch, the
crash issue is gone.
