Ext4: handle SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA generically
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
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,
