mpage_submit_page() can race with another process growing i_size and
writing data via mmap to the written-back page. As mpage_submit_page()
samples i_size too early, it may happen that ext4_bio_write_page()
zeroes out too large tail of the page and thus corrupts user data.
Fix the problem by sampling i_size only after the page has been
write-protected in page tables by clear_page_dirty_for_io() call.
