fs: Enable bmap() function to properly return errors
By now, bmap() will either return the physical block number related to the requested file offset or 0 in case of error or the requested offset maps into a hole. This patch makes the needed changes to enable bmap() to proper return errors, using the return value as an error return, and now, a pointer must be passed to bmap() to be filled with the mapped physical block. It will change the behavior of bmap() on return: - negative value in case of error - zero on success or map fell into a hole In case of a hole, the *block will be zero too Since this is a prep patch, by now, the only error return is -EINVAL if ->bmap doesn't exist.
