[PATCH v2 2/9] ext2: tell DAX the size of allocation holes

From: Ross Zwisler <hidden>
Date: 2016-08-23 22:04:12
Also in: linux-fsdevel, linux-mm, lkml, nvdimm
Subsystem: ext2 file system, filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), the rest · Maintainers: Jan Kara, Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Linus Torvalds

When DAX calls ext2_get_block() and the file offset points to a hole we
currently don't set bh_result->b_size.  When we re-enable PMD faults DAX
will need bh_result->b_size to tell it the size of the hole so it can
decide whether to fault in a 4 KiB zero page or a 2 MiB zero page.
