Fix nobh_truncate_page() to not pass stack garbage to get_block()

The nobh_truncate_page() function is used by ext2, exofs, and jfs.  Of
these three, only ext2 and jfs's get_block() function pays attention
to bh->b_size --- which is normally always the filesystem blocksize
except when the get_block() function is called by either
mpage_readpage(), mpage_readpages(), or the direct I/O routines in
fs/direct_io.c.

Unfortunately, nobh_truncate_page() does not initialize map_bh before
calling the filesystem-supplied get_block() function.  So ext2 and jfs
will try to calculate the number of blocks to map by taking stack
garbage and shifting it left by inode->i_blkbits.  This should be
*mostly* harmless (except the filesystem will do some unnneeded work)
unless the stack garbage is less than filesystem's blocksize, in which
case maxblocks will be zero, and the attempt to find out whether or
not the filesystem has a hole at a given logical block will fail, and
the page cache entry might not get zero'ed out.

Also if the stack garbage in in map_bh->state happens to have the
BH_Mapped bit set, there could be an attempt to call readpage() on a
non-existent page, which could cause nobh_truncate_page() to return an
error when it should not.

Fix this by initializing map_bh->state and map_bh->size.

Fortunately, it's probably fairly unlikely that ext2 and jfs users
mount with nobh these days.
