Shin'ichiro Kawasaki e511350590 block: Discard page cache of zone reset target range
When zone reset ioctl and data read race for a same zone on zoned block
devices, the data read leaves stale page cache even though the zone
reset ioctl zero clears all the zone data on the device. To avoid
non-zero data read from the stale page cache after zone reset, discard
page cache of reset target zones in blkdev_zone_mgmt_ioctl(). Introduce
the helper function blkdev_truncate_zone_range() to discard the page
cache. Ensure the page cache discarded by calling the helper function
before and after zone reset in same manner as fallocate does.

This patch can be applied back to the stable kernel version v5.10.y.
Rework is needed for older stable kernels.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
