Instead of passing validity of block mapping, do_mpage_readpage() can figure it out using buffer_mapped(). This will reduce one

Is buffer_mapped() the correct flag to use?  Remember that get_block() can
validly return a !buffer_mapped() bh over a file hole.

Yes. Currently the code which handles hole can only deal with a single block at a time.
All I am trying to do is,  find out when to do next getblock() call.


Either way, there should be a comment in there explaining the protocol,
please.

Will do.

Thanks,
Badari
