3.16.7-ckt12 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me 
know.

------------------

From: Davide Italiano <[email protected]>

commit 280227a75b56ab5d35854f3a77ef74a7ad56a203 upstream.

fallocate() checks that the file is extent-based and returns
EOPNOTSUPP in case is not. Other tasks can convert from and to
indirect and extent so it's safe to check only after grabbing
the inode mutex.
