During the movement of a written extent, mext_page_mkuptodate() is
called to read data in the range [from, to) into the page cache and to
update the corresponding buffers. Therefore, we should not wait on any
buffer whose start offset is >= 'to'. Otherwise, it will return -EIO and
fail the extents movement.
$ for i in `seq 3 -1 0`; \
do xfs_io -fs -c "pwrite -b 1024 $((i * 1024)) 1024" /mnt/foo; \
done
$ umount /mnt && mount /dev/pmem1s /mnt # drop cache
$ e4defrag /mnt/foo
e4defrag 1.47.0 (5-Feb-2023)
ext4 defragmentation for /mnt/foo
[1/1]/mnt/foo: 0% [ NG ]
Success: [0/1]
Fixes: a40759fb16ae ("ext4: remove array of buffer_heads from mext_page_mkuptodate()")
