    ext4: fix ext4_ext_direct_IO()'s return value after converting uninit extents · 109f5565
    Mingming 提交于
    After a direct I/O request covering an uninitalized extent (i.e.,
    created using the fallocate system call) or a hole in a file, ext4
    will convert the uninitialized extent so it is marked as initialized
    by calling ext4_convert_unwritten_extents().  This function returns
    zero on success.
    
    This return value was getting returned by ext4_direct_IO(); however
    the file system's direct_IO function is supposed to return the number
    of bytes read or written on a success.  By returning zero, it confused
    the direct I/O code into falling back to buffered I/O unnecessarily.
