RHBZ: 1866684 We don't have a real fallocate in the SMB2 protocol so we used to emulate fallocate by simply switching the file to become non-sparse. But as that could potantially consume a lot more data than we intended to fallocate (large sparse file and fallocating a thin slice in the middle) we would only do this IFF the fallocate request was for virtually the entire file. This patch improves this and starts allowing us to fallocate smaller chunks of a file by overwriting the region with 0, for the parts that are unallocated. The method used is to first query the server for FSCTL_QUERY_ALLOCATED_RANGES to find what is unallocated in the fallocate range and then to only overwrite-with-zero the unallocated ranges to fill in the holes. As overwriting-with-zero is different from just allocating blocks, and potentially much more expensive, we limit this to only allow fallocate ranges up to 1Mb in size.
