Subject: [PATCH] ext4: Fix return value for direct io reads at or beyond eof
Currently, an unaligned dio read at eof on ext4 returns EINVAL from
do_blockdev_direct_IO. However this unaligned dio read at eof could be due
to previous short read and we should return zero.
Fix this by checking for this condition in ext4_direct_IO_read()
and returning zero, if true.
