[PATCH v9 3/3] loop: Add support for provision requests

[Sarthak Kukreti]

Add support for provision requests to loopback devices. Loop devices
will configure provision support based on whether the underlying block
device/file can support the provision request and, upon receiving a
provision bio, will map it to the backing device/storage. For loop devices
over files, a REQ_OP_PROVISION request will translate to an fallocate()
mode 0 call on the backing file.

Caveat: For filesystems with copy-on-write semantics, REQ_OP_PROVISION
will guarantee the success of only the next write to the provisioned range
with a ENOSPC.
