Very interesting patch, but as I was looking at this, it brought up a
key missing feature in cifs.ko. Looking at generic_file_llseek (which
many fs end up calling) - seek hole returns the end of file. Looks
like I need to see if I can code SEEK_HOLE support in cifs, at least
for SMB3 (and also need to add .fiemap while I am at it - the protocol
supports it).
