There are problems with the block based fiemap, it doesn't set FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST properly sometimes. This bz is to backport commit 3a3076f4d6e2fa31338a0b007df42a3b32f079e0 Author: Josef Bacik <josef> Date: Fri Apr 23 12:17:17 2010 -0400 Cleanup generic block based fiemap This cleans up a few of the complaints of __generic_block_fiemap. I've fixed all the typing stuff, used inline functions instead of macros, gotten rid of a couple of variables, and made sure the size and block requests are all block aligned. It also fixes a problem where sometimes FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST wasn't being set properly. Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds>
