f2fs: preallocate fallocated blocks for direct IO
Normally, due to DIO_SKIP_HOLES flag is set by default, blockdev_direct_IO in
f2fs_direct_IO tries to skip DIO in holes when writing inside i_size, this
makes us falling back to buffered IO which shows lower performance.
So in commit
59b802e5a453 ("f2fs: allocate data blocks in advance for
f2fs_direct_IO"), we improve perfromance by allocating data blocks in advance
if we meet holes no matter in i_size or not, since with it we can avoid falling
back to buffered IO.
But we forget to consider for unwritten fallocated block in this commit.
This patch tries to fix it for fallocate case, this helps to improve
performance.
Test result:
