In ext4_zero_range() and ext4_punch_hole(), the range passed could be unaligned
however we only zero out the pagecache range that is block aligned. These
functions are relying on ext4_zero_partial_blocks() ->
__ext4_block_zero_page_range() to take care of zeroing the unaligned edges in
the pageacache. However, the right thing to do is to properly zero out the whole
range in these functions before and not rely on a different function to do it
for us. Hence, modify ext4_zero_range() and ext4_punch_hole() to zero the
complete range.
This will also allow us to now exit early for unwritten buffer heads in
__ext4_block_zero_page_range(), in upcoming patch.
