Where can I the patches to enable dedupe_range on xfs? I tested your
previous devel branch based on Linux v4.7-rc3 with duperemove
(https://github.com/markfasheh/duperemove) and it worked extremely well -
even handling some cases that btrfs still has issues with. I actually
committed the code to enable xfs support in duperemove so anyone can test on
xfs with the dedupe_range patches.

I'd gladly test your latest patches by doing my usual 'large' duperemove
tests once I can get ahold of the dedupe_range work :)

Thanks,
