[PATCH] vfs: Support FALLOC_FL_NO_HIDE_STALE flag with fallocate
From: Sig Shen
Date: Fri Jun 15 2018 - 06:51:23 EST
FALLOC_FL_NO_HIDE_STALE flag must be set if user want to issue
a discard request for block devices. But vfs_fallocate() will
return with an error -EOPNOTSUPP indicating lack of support
if this flag is set.
fix it by allowing FALLOC_FL_NO_HIDE_STALE flag in vfs_fallocate
Fixes: 25f4c41415e5 ("block: implement (some of) fallocate for block devices")
