ocfs2: Zero the tail cluster when extending past i_size.

Browse Source 
ocfs2's allocation unit is the cluster.  This can be larger than a block
or even a memory page.  This means that a file may have many blocks in
its last extent that are beyond the block containing i_size.  There also
may be more unwritten extents after that.

When ocfs2 grows a file, it zeros the entire cluster in order to ensure
future i_size growth will see cleared blocks.  Unfortunately,
block_write_full_page() drops the pages past i_size.  This means that
ocfs2 is actually leaking garbage data into the tail end of that last
cluster.  This is a bug.

We adjust ocfs2_write_begin_nolock() and ocfs2_extend_file() to detect
when a write or truncate is past i_size.  They will use
ocfs2_zero_extend() to ensure the data is properly zeroed.

Older versions of ocfs2_zero_extend() simply zeroed every block between
i_size and the zeroing position.  This presumes three things:

1) There is allocation for all of these blocks.
2) The extents are not unwritten.
3) The extents are not refcounted.

(1) and (2) hold true for non-sparse filesystems, which used to be the
only users of ocfs2_zero_extend().  (3) is another bug.

Since we're now using ocfs2_zero_extend() for sparse filesystems as
well, we teach ocfs2_zero_extend() to check every extent between
i_size and the zeroing position.  If the extent is unwritten, it is
ignored.  If it is refcounted, it is CoWed.  Then it is zeroed.
