Hi there,

Sorry for so late voice.

ext4_ext_remove_space() are supposed to be used by truncate, so it
remove blocks from EOF to start as indicated by while-loop.   Now it
has an end, so I think we'd better limit the while loop from the end
to the start, but not from EOF to the start.

we can achieve this by assigning path right before while-loop.
