[PATCH v2 7/9] block: factor out common part in blkdev_fallocate()

From: Zhang Yi
Date: Thu Jun 19 2025 - 07:33:45 EST


From: Zhang Yi <yi.zhang@xxxxxxxxxx>

Only the flags passed to blkdev_issue_zeroout() differ among the two
zeroing branches in blkdev_fallocate(). Therefore, do cleanup by
factoring them out.
