 extended FSX testing

I've added this to the ext4 patch queue (dev branch).  Many thanks for
all of your work testing the punch series, and finding other bugs
while you were at it!

I'm about to start merging the punch patches into the dev branch.

Just one tiny request for the future:

I really appreciate the fact that you write great commit descriptions
and keep a version history of your patches; it helps me out a lot.  If
you could move the version history to after the "---" and before the
diff stats (or actual patch if there are no diff stats), that would
make my life a just a tiny bit easier.

Awesome work, and thanks again!
