After experimenting a bit I see the purpose of trimming to i_size -
otherwise with large range iomap will iterate all available inode offsets
block by block wasting a lot of CPU. This is because ext2_get_blocks() is
always reporting holes as a single block long. So we either need to keep
the i_size limitation (and just treat i_size == 0 specially) or we need to
improve ext2_get_blocks() to better report length of holes (at least
whatever is in the currently loaded indirect block) - not sure if that is
worth it.
