ext4: more efficient SEEK_DATA implementation
Using SEEK_DATA in a huge sparse file can easily lead to sotflockups as ext4_seek_data() iterates hole block-by-block. Fix the problem by using returned hole size from ext4_map_blocks() and thus skip the hole in one go. Update also SEEK_HOLE implementation to follow the same pattern as SEEK_DATA to make future maintenance easier. Furthermore we add cond_resched() to both ext4_seek_data() and ext4_seek_hole() to avoid softlockups in case evil user creates huge fragmented file and we have to go through lots of extents.
