[PATCH 4/5] fat: fallback to buffered write in case of fallocatded region on direct IO

From: Namjae Jeon
Date: Wed Oct 09 2013 - 10:41:19 EST


From: Namjae Jeon <namjae.jeon@xxxxxxxxxxx>

For normal cases of direct IO write, trying to seek to location greater than file size,
makes it fall back to buffered write to fill that region.
Similarly, in case for write in Fallocated region, make it fall to buffered write.
