eCryptfs: delay writing 0's after llseek until write
Delay writing 0's out in eCryptfs after a seek past the end of the file until data is actually written. http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/lseek.html ``The lseek() function shall not, by itself, extend the size of a file.'' Without this fix, applications that lseek() past the end of the file without writing will experience unexpected behavior.
