[PATCH 3/3] Ext4: handle SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA generically V4

From: Josef Bacik
Date: Mon May 23 2011 - 17:44:08 EST


Since Ext4 has its own lseek we need to make sure it handles
SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA. For now just do the same thing that is done in the generic
case, somebody else can come along and make it do fancy things later. Thanks,
