[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 18/29] vfs: clean up generic_remap_file_range_prep return value

[Darrick J. Wong]

From: Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong at oracle.com>

Since the remap prep function can update the length of the remap
request, we can change this function to return the usual return status
instead of the odd behavior it has now.
