I was looking at adding fallocate() to copy.c,
now that the fiemap code has gone in and
I noticed that if there was allocated space
at the end of a file, not accounted for
in st_size, then any holes would not be detected.
In what other cases does the sparse detection
heuristic fail BTW?
Anwyay, we don't need the heuristic with fiemap,
so I changed accordingly in the attached.
cheers,
Pádraig.
