[Cluster-devel] [GFS2] Patch to fix mmap of stuffed files

[Steven Whitehouse]

Hi,

If a stuffed file is mmaped and a page fault is generated at some offset
above the initial page, we need to create a zero page to hang the buffer
heads off before we can unstuff the file. This is a fix for bz #236087

Steve.
