[PATCH 1/5] ext3-get-blocks: Maping multiple blocks at a once

From: Mingming Cao
Date: Tue Jan 10 2006 - 18:25:05 EST



This patch added support of mapping multiple blocks in one short.
This is useful for DIO reads and re-writes (where blocks are already allocated),
also is in line with Christoph's proposal of using getblocks() in
mpage_readpage() or mpage_readpages().
