CVE-2012-4508 kernel: ext4: AIO vs fallocate stale data exposure

CVE-2012-4508 kernel: ext4: AIO vs fallocate stale data exposure
[dannf: backported to Debian's 2.6.32]

According to Ben :
> The original upstream commits were c278531d39f3158bfee93dc67da0b77e09776de2,
> 60d4616f3dc63371b3dc367e5e88fd4b4f037f65 and (most importantly)
> dee1f973ca341c266229faa5a1a5bb268bed3531 by Dmitry Monakhov
> <dmonakhov@openvz.org>.  They were backported into the RHEL 6 kernel by
> Lukas Czerner, according to its changelog.  Dann got this version from
> Oracle's redpatch repository, where, if I understand rightly, Jamie Iles
> attempted to regenerate Lukas's patch(es).
