I made this fix to the ext4_ext_convert_to_initialized What do you mean zeros here? Some useful data is zeroed? and the test has been running smooth for about an hour now. Yongqiang, this one looks like it may have been associated with the split extents clean up patch. Would you mind taking a look at this fix and giving it your ok if it looks good?

We need to zero [map->m_lblk + map->m_len, ee_block + ee_len). and [map->m_lblk, map->m_lblk + map->m_len) is zeroed by upper layer because of MAP_NEW flag. Right logic? I can not see the error and the meaning of ee_len - allocated - map->m_len.
