Prior to commit d47992f86b30 ("mm: change invalidatepage prototype to
accept length"), an offset of 0 meant that the full page was being
invalidated.  After that commit, we need to instead check the length.

Jan said:
:
: The only possible issue is that try_to_release_page() was called more
: often than necessary.  Otherwise the issue is harmless but still it's good
: to have this fixed.
