[PATCH] AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE victims in read_pages() belong in the LRU

AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE victims in read_pages() belong in the LRU

Nick Piggin rightly pointed out that the introduction of AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE
to read_pages() was wrong to leave A_T_P victim pages in the page cache but
not put them in the LRU.  Failing to do so hid them from the VM.

A_T_P just means that the aop method unlocked the page rather than
performing IO.  It would be very rare that the page was truncated between
the unlock and testing A_T_P.  So we leave the pages in the LRU for likely
reuse soon rather than backing them back out of the page cache.  We do this
by matching the behaviour before the A_T_P introduction which added pages
to the LRU regardless of what ->readpage() did.

This doesn't include the unrelated cleanup in Nick's initial fix which
changed read_pages() to return void to match its only caller's behaviour of
ignoring errors.
