When DAX calls _ext4_get_block() and the file offset points to a hole we
currently don't set bh->b_size.  When we re-enable PMD faults DAX will
need bh->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.

_ext4_get_block() has the hole size information from ext4_map_blocks(), so
populate bh->b_size.
