Patch itself is good however, the bug cannot currently be triggered, due
to the following code in the sole caller (btrfs_remap_file_range):



15 if (ret < 0 || len == 0)

14 goto out_unlock;

13

12 if (remap_flags & REMAP_FILE_DEDUP)

11 ret = btrfs_extent_same(src_inode, off, len,
dst_inode, destoff);
10 else

9 ret = btrfs_clone_files(dst_file, src_file, off,
len, destoff);



i.e len is guaranteed to be non-zero
