[PATCH] block: pass inclusive 'lend' parameter to truncate_inode_pages_range

[Ming Lei]

The 'lend' parameter of truncate_inode_pages_range is required to be
inclusive, so follow the rule.

This patch fixes one memory corruption triggered by discard.

Fixes: 351499a172c0 ("block: Invalidate cache on discard v2")
