mainlining shenanigans

XFS SEEK_HOLE implementation could miss a hole in an unwritten extent as
can be seen by the following command:
xfs_io -c "falloc 0 256k" -c "pwrite 0 56k" -c "pwrite 128k 8k"
-c "seek -h 0" file
wrote 57344/57344 bytes at offset 0
56 KiB, 14 ops; 0.0000 sec (49.312 MiB/sec and 12623.9856 ops/sec)
wrote 8192/8192 bytes at offset 131072
8 KiB, 2 ops; 0.0000 sec (70.383 MiB/sec and 18018.0180 ops/sec)
Whence Result
HOLE 139264
Where we can see that hole at offset 56k was just ignored by SEEK_HOLE
implementation. The bug is in xfs_find_get_desired_pgoff() which does
not properly detect the case when pages are not contiguous.
Fix the problem by properly detecting when found page has larger offset
than expected.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
