2.6.31-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ (cherry picked from commit 446aaa6e7e993b38a6f21c6acfa68f3f1af3dbe3) The move_extent.moved_len is used to pass back the number of exchanged blocks count to user space. Currently the caller must clear this field; but we spend more code space checking for this requirement than simply zeroing the field ourselves, so let's just make life easier for everyone all around.
