Subject[PATCH] tmpfs: fix SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE regression
Commit 46a1c2c7ae53 ("vfs: export lseek_execute() to modules")
broke the tmpfs SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE implementation, because
vfs_setpos() converts the carefully prepared -ENXIO to -EINVAL.
Other filesystems avoid it in error cases: do the same in tmpfs.
