Subject: [RFC 1/8] ext4: Stop searching if PA doesn't satisfy non-extent file
Date:   Sun, 28 Aug 2022 12:16:14 +0530
Message-Id: <b4a86ddab5c5ed9495170f3367bdf22027583988.1661632343.git.ojaswin@linux.ibm.com>

If we come across a PA that matches the logical offset but is unable to
satisfy a non-extent file due to its physical start being higher than
that supported by non extent files, then simply stop searching for
another PA and break out of loop. This is because, since PAs don't
overlap, we won't be able to find another inode PA which can satisfy the
original request.
