Hi Hugh,

IIUC, several months ago you revert the patch. You said, 

"I don't know who actually uses SEEK_DATA or SEEK_HOLE, and whether it
would be of any use to them on tmpfs.  This code adds 92 lines and 752
bytes on x86_64 - is that bloat or worthwhile?"

But this time in which scenario will use it?

Jaegeuk
