fs: make cont_expand_zero interruptible
This patch makes it possible to kill a process looping in cont_expand_zero. A process may spend a lot of time in this function, so it is desirable to be able to kill it. It happened to me that I wanted to copy a piece data from the disk to a file. By mistake, I used the "seek" parameter to dd instead of "skip". Due to the "seek" parameter, dd attempted to extend the file and became stuck doing so - the only possibility was to reset the machine or wait many hours until the filesystem runs out of space and cont_expand_zero fails. We need this patch to be able to terminate the process. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
