3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
===============
commit b9b4bb26af017dbe930cd4df7f9b2fc3a0497bfe upstream.
When fallocate is interrupted it will undo a range that extends one byte
past its range of allocated pages. This can corrupt an in-use page by
zeroing out its first byte. Instead, undo using the inclusive byte
range.
Fixes: 1635f6a74152f1d ("tmpfs: undo fallocation on failure")
