[PATCH 3.15 045/139] ext4: fix ZERO_RANGE test failure in data journalling

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sat Jun 28 2014 - 14:15:21 EST


3.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Namjae Jeon <namjae.jeon@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit e1ee60fd89670da61b0a4bda59f8ffb2b8abea63 upstream.

xfstests generic/091 is failing when mounting ext4 with data=journal.
I think that this regression is same problem that occurred prior to collapse
range issue. So ZERO RANGE also need to call ext4_force_commit as
collapse range.
