ext4: use FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST flag for last extent in fiemap
Currently we are not marking the extent as the last one (FIEMAP_EXTENT_LAST) if there is a hole at the end of the file. This is because we just do not check for it right now and continue searching for next extent. But at the point we hit the hole at the end of the file, it is too late. This commit adds check for the allocated block in subsequent extent and if there is no more extents (block = EXT_MAX_BLOCKS) just flag the current one as the last one. This behaviour has been spotted unintentionally by 252 xfstest, when the test hangs out, because of wrong loop condition. However on other filesystems (like xfs) it will exit anyway, because we notice the last extent flag and exit. With this patch xfstest 252 does not hang anymore, ext4 fiemap implementation still reports bad extent type in some cases, however this seems to be different issue.
