[PATCH 6/8] ext4: make sure zero range WRITE_ZEROES uses NO_CONV_ACC flag
From: Ojaswin Mujoo
Date: Mon Nov 02 2026 - 13:46:19 EST
A zero range WRITE_ZEROES splits and converts an unwrit -> written extent
but it doesn't need any protection against the zeroout fallback in
ext4_split_extent_zeroout() because it's data is just zeroes anyways.
Hence, indicate to the zeroout code that the caller doesn't account for
itself in ei->i_conv_pending_ios.
Fixes: ea96cb5c4ae3 ("ext4: don't split extent before submitting I/O")
