From: Namjae Jeon <namjae.jeon@samsung.com>

In continuation of the work of making the process of non linear editing of
media files faster, we introduce here the new flag FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE
for fallocate.

This flag will work opposite to the FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE flag.
As such, specifying FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE flag will create new space inside file
by inserting a hole within the range specified by offset and len. 
User can write new data in this space. e.g. ads.
Like collapse range, currently we have the limitation that offset and len should
be block size aligned for both XFS and Ext4.

The semantics of the flag are :
1) It creates space within file by inserting a hole of  len bytes starting
   at offset byte without overwriting any existing data. All the data blocks
   from offset to EOF are shifted towards right to make hole space.
2) It should be used exclusively. No other fallocate flag in combination.
3) Offset and length supplied to fallocate should be fs block size aligned
   in case of xfs and ext4.
4) Insert range does not work for the case when offset is overlapping/beyond
   i_size. If the user wants to insert space at the end of file they are
   advised to use either ftruncate(2) or fallocate(2) with mode 0.
5) It increses the size of file by len bytes.

FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE command is the opposite command of
FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE that is needed for advertisers or someone who want to
add some data in the middle of file. FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE will create space
for writing new data within a file after shifting extents to right as given
length. and this command also has same limitation as FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE,
that is block boundary and use ftruncate(2) for crosses EOF.
