Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 157/237] hfsplus: fix return value of hfsplus_get_block()

From: Ernesto A. Fernández <ernesto.mnd.fernandez@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 839c3a6a5e1fbc8542d581911b35b2cb5cd29304 ]

Direct writes to empty inodes fail with EIO.  The generic direct-io code
is in part to blame (a patch has been submitted as "direct-io: allow
direct writes to empty inodes"), but hfsplus is worse affected than the
other filesystems because the fallback to buffered I/O doesn't happen.

The problem is the return value of hfsplus_get_block() when called with
!create.  Change it to be more consistent with the other modules.
