Fair enough. As mentioned previously, a bunch of xfstests will fail
because exFAT's SEEK_HOLE doesn't behave like all the other sparse file
systems would. Will have to disable part or all of lseek() test cases.

I had another idea of using FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE as means of truncating
VDL. I'll make that one offical send send them through. Or, if you
already thought of that too, well, sorry to bother you.
