[PATCH] ext3_getblk() should handle HOLE correctly
It has been reported that ext3_getblk() is not doing the right thing and
triggering following WARN():
BUG: warning at fs/ext3/inode.c:1016/ext3_getblk()

Looking at the code, it looks like it's not handle HOLE correctly. It ends
up returning -EIO. Here is the patch to fix it.
If we really want to be paranoid, we can allow return values 0 (HOLE), 1
(we asked for one block) and return -EIO for more than 1 block. But I
really don't see a reason for doing it - all we need is the block# here.
(doesn't matter how many blocks are mapped).
ext3_get_blocks_handle() returns number of blocks it mapped. It returns 0
in case of HOLE. ext3_getblk() should handle HOLE properly (currently its
dumping warning stack and returning -EIO).
