ocfs2 will become read-only if we try to read the bytes which pass
the end of i_size. This can be easily reproduced by following steps:
1. mkfs a ocfs2 volume with bs=4k cs=4k and nosparse.
2. create a small file(say less than 100 bytes) and we will create the file
which is allocated 1 cluster.
3. read 8196 bytes from the kernel using O_DIRECT which exceeds the limit.
4. The ocfs2 volume becomes read-only and dmesg shows:
OCFS2: ERROR (device sda13): ocfs2_direct_IO_get_blocks:
Inode 66010 has a hole at block 1
File system is now read-only due to the potential of on-disk corruption.
Please run fsck.ocfs2 once the file system is unmounted.
So suppress the ERROR message.
