PATCH v2 1/1 Fix zero_user_segments() with start > end

zero_user_segments() is used from __block_write_begin_int(), for example like the following

	zero_user_segments(page, 4096, 1024, 512, 918)

But new zero_user_segments() implements for HIGMEM + TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE doesn't handle "start > end" case correctly, and hits BUG_ON(). (we can fix __block_write_begin_int() instead though, it is the old and multiple usage)

Also it calls kmap_atomic() unnecessary while start == end == 0.

Fixes 0060ef3b4e6d ("mm: support THPs in zero_user_segments")
