block: Hold invalidate_lock in BLKZEROOUT ioctl
When BLKZEROOUT ioctl and data read race, the data read leaves stale
page cache. To avoid the stale page cache, hold invalidate_lock of the
block device file mapping. The stale page cache is observed when
blktests test case block/009 is modified to call "blkdiscard -z" command
and repeated hundreds of times.
This patch can be applied back to the stable kernel version v5.15.y.
Rework is required for older stable kernels.
