[XFS] Warn if errors come from block_truncate_page().

block_truncate_page() can return errors that we currently ignore and
silently discard. We should not ever get errors reported here - an error
indicates a bug somewhere else. Hence catch the error and issue a stack
dump to the syslog because we cannot propagate the error any further up
the call chain.
