ext4: add punching hole support for non-extent-mapped files
This patch add supports for indirect file support punching hole. It
is almost the same as ext4_ext_punch_hole. First, we invalidate all
pages between this hole, and then we try to deallocate all blocks of
this hole.
A recursive function is used to handle deallocation of blocks. In
this function, it iterates over the entries in inode's i_blocks or
indirect blocks, and try to free the block for each one of them.
After applying this patch, xfstest #255 will not pass w/o extent because
indirect-based file doesn't support unwritten extents.
