Mike Kravetz f27a5136f7 hugetlbfs: always use address space in inode for resv_map pointer
Continuing discussion about 58b6e5e8f1 ("hugetlbfs: fix memory leak for
resv_map") brought up the issue that inode->i_mapping may not point to the
address space embedded within the inode at inode eviction time.  The
hugetlbfs truncate routine handles this by explicitly using inode->i_data.
However, code cleaning up the resv_map will still use the address space
pointed to by inode->i_mapping.  Luckily, private_data is NULL for address
spaces in all such cases today but, there is no guarantee this will
continue.

Change all hugetlbfs code getting a resv_map pointer to explicitly get it
from the address space embedded within the inode.  In addition, add more
comments in the code to indicate why this is being done.
