    ext4: return hole from ext4_map_blocks() · facab4d9
    Jan Kara authored
    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.
