[PATCH v3 56/68] afs: Handle len being extending over page end in write_begin/write_end

With transparent huge pages, in the future, write_begin() and write_end()
may be passed a length parameter that, in combination with the offset into
the page, exceeds the length of that page. This allows
grab_cache_page_write_begin() to better choose the size of THP to allocate.
Fix afs's functions to handle this by trimming the length as needed after
the page has been allocated.
[Removed the now-unnecessary index var; spotted by kernel test robot]
Fixes: e1b1240c1ff5 ("netfs: Add write_begin helper")
