ext4: return hole from ext4_map_blocks()
BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1602524 upstream commit facab4d9 Currently, ext4_map_blocks() just returns 0 when it finds a hole and allocation is not requested. However we have all the information available to tell how large the hole actually is and there are callers of ext4_map_blocks() which would save some block-by-block hole iteration if they knew this information. So fill in struct ext4_map_blocks even for holes with the information we have. We keep returning 0 for holes to maintain backward compatibility of the function.
