You can call it whatever you want, I call it a hump, sometimes followed with fallaway sometimes with a rise.

Very often, the so-called hump is a combination of two factors. One is excess relief, and the other is fallaway. If you set the relief properly, you will still have fallaway (which is unaffected by truss rod adjustments), but action and playability up to the body will be the same as a fingerboard with no fallaway.
In any case, fallaway on the fretboard tongue has no bearing on the buzzing problem, or on the action measurements at the 12th fret.
