3.2.70-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Davide Italiano <dccitali...@gmail.com> commit 280227a75b56ab5d35854f3a77ef74a7ad56a203 upstream. fallocate() checks that the file is extent-based and returns EOPNOTSUPP in case is not. Other tasks can convert from and to indirect and extent so it's safe to check only after grabbing the inode mutex.
