[PATCH v7 2/5] block: Introduce provisioning primitives

Sarthak Kukreti
2023-05-18T22:34:23Z

Introduce block request REQ_OP_PROVISION. The intent of this request
is to request underlying storage to preallocate disk space for the given
block range. Block devices that support this capability will export
a provision limit within their request queues.

This patch also adds the capability to call fallocate() in mode 0
on block devices, which will send REQ_OP_PROVISION to the block
device for the specified range,
