Subject: block/raw-posix: use seek_hole ahead of fiemap
X-Git-Url: http://git.osdn.net/view?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7c15903789953ead14a417882657d52dc0c19a24;p=qmiga%2Fqemu.git

block/raw-posix: use seek_hole ahead of fiemap

try_fiemap() uses FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC which has a significant performance
impact.

Prefer seek_hole() over fiemap() to avoid this impact where possible.
seek_hole is more widely used and, arguably, has potential to be
optimised in the kernel.
