GFS2: make sure fallocate bytes is a multiple of blksize
The GFS2 fallocate code chooses a target size to for allocating chunks of space. Whenever it can't find any resource groups with enough space free, it halves its target. Since this target is in bytes, eventually it will no longer be a multiple of blksize. As long as there is more space available in the resource group than the target, this isn't a problem, since gfs2 will use the actual space available, which is always a multiple of blksize. However, when gfs couldn't fallocate a bigger chunk than the target, it was using the non-blksize aligned number. This caused a BUG in later code that required blksize aligned offsets. GFS2 now ensures that bytes is always a multiple of blksize Signed-off-by: Benjamin Marzinski <bmarzins@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
