Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Add FIEMAP header file

Recently there was discussion about an "FIle Extent MAP"(FIEMAP) ioctl for efficiently mapping the extents and holes of a file. This will be many times more efficient than FIBMAP by cutting down the number of ioctls.

This patch adds the FIEMAP header file in include/linux.
