[PATCH 2/3] xfs: always use unwritten extents for direct I/O writes

[Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org>]

[-- Attachment #1: 0002-xfs-always-use-unwritten-extents-for-direct-I-O-writ.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1447 bytes --]

To allow aio writes beyond i_size we need to create unwritten extents for
newly allocated blocks, similar to how we already do inside i_size.

Instead of adding another special case we now use unwritten extents
unconditionally.  This also marks the end of directly allocation data
extents in all of XFS - we now always use either delalloc or unwritten
extents.
