ext4: fix ext4_ext_direct_IO()'s return value after converting uninit extents
After a direct I/O request covering an uninitalized extent (i.e.,
created using the fallocate system call) or a hole in a file, ext4
will convert the uninitialized extent so it is marked as initialized
by calling ext4_convert_unwritten_extents(). This function returns
zero on success.
This return value was getting returned by ext4_direct_IO(); however
the file system's direct_IO function is supposed to return the number
of bytes read or written on a success. By returning zero, it confused
the direct I/O code into falling back to buffered I/O unnecessarily.
