I'm not understanding this.  I can buy the argument about
nrexceptional, but why does cleancache require the
invalidate_inode_pages2_range) call even when ->nrpages is zero?

I *assume* it's because invalidate_inode_pages2_range() calls
cleancache_invalidate_inode(), yes?  If so, can we please add this to
the changelog?  If not then please explain further.
