The first three patches make fsx use fallocate/fpunch correctly.
Hole punching is not detected correctly, falloc/fpunch operations
can't actually be executed properly, and the logdump code will segv
on the first falloc operation it finds in the log.
The last patch widens the fsx coverage to mix direct IO reads/writes
with mmapped reads/writes as that was the test case that it was
executing (instead of using falloc/fpunch!) when it triggered the
error (a real bug) that lead to me finding this mess....
