Commit e3ec0fe944d2 ("hostfs: Convert hostfs_read_folio() to use a folio") simplified hostfs_read_folio(), but in the process of converting to using folios natively also mis-used the folio_zero_tail() function due to the very confusing API of that function.
Very arguably it's folio_zero_tail() API itself that is buggy, since it would make more sense (and the documentation kind of implies) that the third argument would be the pointer to the beginning of the folio buffer.
But no, the third argument to folio_zero_tail() is where we should start zeroing the tail (even if we already also pass in the offset separately as the second argument).
So fix the hostfs caller, and we can leave any folio_zero_tail() sanity cleanup for later.
