Subject: [PATCH] ext4: check for zero length extent explicitly
The following commit introduced a bug when checking for zero length extent
5946d08 ext4: check for overlapping extents in ext4_valid_extent_entries()
Zero length extent could pass the check if lblock is zero.
Adding the explicit check for zero length back.
Signed-off-by: Eryu Guan <guaneryu@...il.com>

This is uncovered by recent updates for encryption, catting a file with zero
length extent results in infinite loop ext4_mpage_readpages(), and process
cannot be killed either.
Tested with corrupted ext4 image in e2fsprogs sources, cat returned EIO
correctly
