[PATCH 2/9] afs: Fix post-setattr file edit to do truncation correctly

At the end of an kAFS RPC operation, there is an "edit" phase (originally
intended for post-directory modification ops to edit the local image) that
the setattr VFS op uses to fix up the pagecache if the RPC that requested
truncation of a file was successful.

afs_setattr_edit_file() calls truncate_setsize() which sets i_size, expands
the pagecache if needed and truncates the pagecache.  The first two of
those, however, are redundant as they've already been done by
afs_setattr_success() under the io_lock and the first is also done under
the callback lock (cb_lock).

Fix afs_setattr_edit_file() to call truncate_pagecache() instead (which is
called by truncate_setsize(), thereby skipping the redundant parts.

Fixes: 100ccd18bb41 ("netfs: Optimise away reads above the point at which there can be no data")
