ext4: Do not zero out uninitialized extents beyond i_size
The extents code will sometimes zero out blocks and mark them as initialized instead of splitting an extent into several smaller ones. This optimization however, causes problems if the extent is beyond i_size because fsck will complain if there are uninitialized blocks after i_size as this can not be distinguished from an inode that has an incorrect i_size field. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15742Signed-off-by: Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
