    fs/direct-io.c: calculate fs_count correctly in get_more_blocks() · ae55e1aa

    In get_more_blocks(), we use dio_count to calcuate fs_count and do some
    tricky things to increase fs_count if dio_count isn't aligned.  But
    actually it still has some corner cases that can't be coverd.  See the
    following example:
    
    	dio_write foo -s 1024 -w 4096
    
    (direct write 4096 bytes at offset 1024).  The same goes if the offset
    isn't aligned to fs_blocksize.
    
    In this case, the old calculation counts fs_count to be 1, but actually we
    will write into 2 different blocks (if fs_blocksize=4096).  The old code
    just works, since it will call get_block twice (and may have to allocate
    and create extents twice for filesystems like ext4).  So we'd better call
    get_block just once with the proper fs_count.
