[PATCHv1, RFC 28/33] ext4: handle huge pages in __ext4_block_zero_page_range()

From: Kirill A. Shutemov <hidden>
Date: 2016-07-26 00:35:30
Also in: linux-block, linux-fsdevel, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: ext4 file system, filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), the rest · Maintainers: "Theodore Ts'o", Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Linus Torvalds

As the function handles zeroing range only within one block, the
required changes are trivial, just remove assuption on page size.
