You've just enabled two options, but you haven't actually
implemented the code behind it. I would tell you *NOT* to do anything
else on this work until you can answer the question: What happens if
you apply this patch, create a large file called "foo.txt", and then a
userspace program executes the following code?
int fd = open("foo.txt", O_RDWR);
fallocate(fd, FALLOCATE_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE, 50, 50);
Try it on a btrfs filesystem, both with and without your patch.
Also try it on an ext4 filesystem.
Once you've done all of that, reply to this mail and tell me what
the problem is with this patch. You need to make two answers: what are
the technical problems with the patch? What errors have you made in
the development process?
*Only* if you can answer those questions sensibly, should you write
any more patches, of any kind.
