Huge tmpfs testing showed that although collapse_shmem() recognizes a
concurrently truncated or hole-punched page correctly, its handling of
holes was liable to refill an emptied extent.  Add check to stop that.

I'm not yet comfortable with XArray API. Matthew, what is your take on the patch?

I'd use xas_find() directly here; I don't think it warrants the inlined
version of xas_next_entry().  But I'm happy either way.
