This patch addresses a bug found by xfstests 75, 112, 127 when blocksize = 1k This bug happens because the punch hole code only zeros out non block aligned regions of the page. This means that if the blocks are smaller than a page, then the block aligned regions of the page inside the hole are left un-zeroed, and their buffer heads are still mapped. This bug is corrected by using ext4_discard_partial_page_buffers to properly zero the partial page at the head and tail of the hole, and unmap the corresponding buffer heads This patch also addresses a bug reported by Lukas while working on a new patch to add discard support for loop devices using punch hole. The bug happened because of the first and last block number needed to be cast to a larger data type before calculating the byte offset, but since now we only need the byte offsets of the pages, we no longer even need to be calculating the byte offsets of the blocks. The code to do the block offset calculations is removed in this patch. Signed-off-by: Allison Henderson <achender@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
