NOTE: The pending iomap SEEK_HOLE/DATA conversion patch will make all this
obsolete; this is a fix more appropriate for pre-4.13 ext4.
---
In the ext4 implementations of SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA, make sure we
return -ENXIO for negative offsets instead of banging around inside
the extent code and returning -EFSCORRUPTED.

Sorry, I missed this patch earlier.  It's not going to make the 4.13
final, but I'll apply it with a "cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 4.6" tag
so it can land in 4.13.x as well as older LTS kernels.
