[U-Boot] [PATCH] ext4: Fix handling of sparse files

Stefan Brüns stefan.bruens at rwth-aachen.de

A sparse file may have regions not mapped by any extents, at the start
or at the end of the file, or anywhere between, thus not finding a
matching extent region is never an error.

Found by python filesystem tests.
