Accesses within VMA, but beyond i_size rounded up to PAGE_SIZE are supposed to generate SIGBUS.
This behavior might not be respected on truncation.
During truncation, the kernel splits a large folio in order to reclaim memory. As a side effect, it unmaps the folio and destroys PMD mappings of the folio. The folio will be refaulted as PTEs and SIGBUS semantics are preserved.
However, if the split fails, PMD mappings are preserved and the user will not receive SIGBUS on any accesses within the PMD.
Unmap the folio on split failure. It will lead to refault as PTEs and preserve SIGBUS semantics.
Make an exception for shmem/tmpfs that for long time intentionally mapped with PMDs across i_size.
