[PATCH 1/1 linux-next] fs/affs/file.c: fix direct IO writes beyond EOF

From: Fabian Frederick
Date: Fri Jan 09 2015 - 16:20:05 EST


Use the same fallback to normal IO in case of write
operations beyond EOF as fat direct IO. This patch fixes

fsx file -d -Z -r 4096 -w 4096

Report:
129(129 mod 256): TRUNCATE DOWN from 0x3ff01 to 0xb3f6
130(130 mod 256): WRITE 0x22000 thru 0x2dfff (0xc000 bytes) HOLE

Thanks to Jan for helping me on this problem.

Ideal solution suggested by Jan Kara would be to use cont_write_begin but
affs direct_IO shouldn't be used a lot anyway...
