[SECOND RESEND] vfs: Return -ENXIO for negative SEEK_HOLE / SEEK_DATA offsets

[Andreas Gruenbacher <agruenba@redhat.com>]

Linus,

could you please merge the following VFS fix, sent to Al etc. on August
30 and resent on September 14, with no reaction?

Thanks,
Andreas

In generic_file_llseek_size, return -ENXIO for negative offsets as well
as offsets beyond EOF.  This affects filesystems which don't implement
SEEK_HOLE / SEEK_DATA internally, possibly because they don't support
holes.

Fixes xfstest generic/448.
