[PATCH 2/6] XFS: handle hole punching via fallocate properly

From: Josef Bacik
Date: Mon Nov 15 2010 - 12:16:29 EST


This patch simply allows XFS to handle the hole punching flag in fallocate
properly. I've tested this with a little program that does a bunch of random
hole punching with FL_KEEP_SIZE and without it to make sure it does the right
thing. Thanks,
