[PATCH 11/15] GFS2: fix block allocation check for fallocate

From: Steven Whitehouse
Date: Tue Mar 15 2011 - 05:34:26 EST


From: Benjamin Marzinski <bmarzins@xxxxxxxxxx>

GFS2 fallocate wasn't properly checking if a blocks were already allocated.
In write_empty_blocks(), if a page didn't have buffer_heads attached, GFS2
was always treating it as if there were no blocks allocated for that page.
GFS2 now calls gfs2_block_map() to check if the blocks are allocated before
writing them out.
