Pass more information to the cache on how to deal with a hole if it
encounters one when trying to read from the cache. Three options are
provided:
(1) NETFS_READ_HOLE_IGNORE. Read the hole along with the data, assuming
it to be a punched-out extent by the backing filesystem.
(2) NETFS_READ_HOLE_CLEAR. If there's a hole, erase the requested region
of the cache and clear the read buffer.
(3) NETFS_READ_HOLE_FAIL. Fail the read if a hole is detected.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
