[PATCH 4/5] afs: Zero bytes after 'oldsize' if we're expanding the file

From: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)
Date: Thu Feb 02 2023 - 15:44:56 EST


POSIX requires that "If the file size is increased, the extended area
shall appear as if it were zero-filled". It is possible to use mmap to
write past EOF and that data will become visible instead of zeroes.
