While testing the latest xfstest from upstream, the generic/430 test will hang with ext4 test.

It looks like this issue was caused by the following command to copy beyond the file:
/usr/sbin/xfs_io -i -f -c "copy_range -s 4000 -l 2000 /home/ubuntu/test/test-430/file" "/home/ubuntu/test/test-430/beyond"

The copied file will have a correct MD5 as expected.
e68d4a150c4e42f4f9ea3ffe4c9cf4ed beyond

But the command will never return.

Steps:
 1. Deploy a node with Bionic (should have a /dev/sdb available for the test)
 2. Run:
    sudo apt-get install git python-minimal -y
    git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/Cypresslin/autotest-client-tests.git -b kteam-xfstest-upstream
    git clone --depth=1 git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/autotest
    rm -fr autotest/client/tests
    ln -sf ~/autotest-client-tests autotest/client/tests
 3. Run the test with the following command:
    AUTOTEST_PATH=/home/ubuntu/autotest sudo -E autotest/client/autotest-local --verbose autotest/client/tests/

(The test suite can be built manually, but it's easier to do this with autotest framework)

To run this test solely after the test partition has been creation on /dev/sdb:
    mkdir /home/ubuntu/test
    cd autotest/client/tmp/xfstests/src/xfstests-bld/xfstests-dev
    sudo su
    export TEST_DIR=/home/ubuntu/test
    export TEST_DEV=/dev/sdb1
    ./check generic/430

Tested with the latest mainline kernel, 4.16.0-041600rc5-generic, and the bug still exist.
