Subject: [013/197] xfs: Fix error return for fallocate() on XFS

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------


From: Jason Gunthorpe <jgunthorpe@...idianresearch.com>

commit 44a743f68705c681439f264deb05f8f38e9048d3 upstream

Noticed that through glibc fallocate would return 28 rather than -1
and errno = 28 for ENOSPC. The xfs routines uses XFS_ERROR format
positive return error codes while the syscalls use negative return
codes.  Fixup the two cases in xfs_vn_fallocate syscall to convert to
negative.
