GFS2: directly write blocks past i_size
GFS2 was relying on the writepage code to write out the zeroed data for fallocate. However, with FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE set, this may be past i_size. If it is, it will be ignored. To work around this, gfs2 now calls write_dirty_buffer directly on the buffer_heads when FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE is set, and it's writing past i_size. This version is just a cleanup of my last version Signed-off-by: Benjamin Marzinski <bmarzins@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
