I know I'm the one who initially reported this, but I suppose there is
an argument to be made that this in itself is not a bug, as Ted seemed
to say before. What is a problem, however, is lseek() giving ENOENT when
the kernel finds file data where it expects to find a block/extent map,
and I can confirm this patch solves that (tested against 6.8.0-rc3). Not
sure if it's the best thing to do so by forcing immediate allocation,
but I feel it's still an improvement.
