This description of the fragmentation score should also go into a comment at the function itself. Otherwise there is no description in the code of what the "score" is or what it's used for.

This function name should be prefixed with e2p_ to avoid name clashes and make it clear that it us part of the e2p library.

I don't think there is a particular reason why this function shouldn't be usable for any filesytem that can return FIEMAP data. 

The fragmentation score should be independent of the underlying implementation, and it is the job of the caller to decide what to do with this information.  In the case of e4defrag it couldn't defrag a directory (ioctl should fail) and it will likely fail on other filesystem types but that is fine also. If other filesystems begin to support this ioctl they may want to begin using the same defrag tool.
