This oops:

  kernel BUG at fs/hugetlbfs/inode.c:484!
  RIP: remove_inode_hugepages+0x3d0/0x410
  Call Trace:
    hugetlbfs_setattr+0xd9/0x130
    notify_change+0x292/0x410
    do_truncate+0x65/0xa0
    do_sys_ftruncate.constprop.3+0x11a/0x180
    SyS_ftruncate+0xe/0x10
    tracesys+0xd9/0xde

was caused by the lack of i_size check in hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte.

mmap() can still succeed beyond the end of the i_size after vmtruncate
zapped vmas in those ranges, but the faults must not succeed, and that
includes UFFDIO_COPY.

We could differentiate the retval to userland to represent a SIGBUS like
a page fault would do (vs SIGSEGV), but it doesn't seem very useful and
we'd need to pick a random retval as there's no meaningful syscall
retval that would differentiate from SIGSEGV and SIGBUS, there's just
-EFAULT.
