[44/90] ext4: async direct IO for holes and fallocate support

[Greg KH <gregkh@suse.de>]

[-- Attachment #1: 0044-ext4-async-direct-IO-for-holes-and-fallocate-support.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 15896 bytes --]

2.6.31-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
(cherry picked from commit 8d5d02e6b176565c77ff03604908b1453a22044d)

For async direct IO that covers holes or fallocate, the end_io
callback function now queued the convertion work on workqueue but
don't flush the work rightaway as it might take too long to afford.

But when fsync is called after all the data is completed, user expects
the metadata also being updated before fsync returns.

Thus we need to flush the conversion work when fsync() is called.
This patch keep track of a listed of completed async direct io that
has a work queued on workqueue.  When fsync() is called, it will go
through the list and do the conversion.
