As I recall it was pretty quick on xfs, but over a minute
for ext4, so I will pull off the quick tag.

I think that's a good idea, I will add that in the 
next version.

Ah, thank you for the careful eye, I will get those
fixed up.

In an earlier version of the patch, this function and _test_full_fs_punch() 
were in common.punch, but we moved it here since non of the other punch hole
tests were using it. If you think other tests could make use of it though,
I think it's a good idea to put it in common.rc. That way people wont have
to worry about moving it, or wonder if something went wrong in the move.

Alrighty, I personally am not partial to one way over the
other, but if it helps make the code easier for people to 
look at, I am happy to put it in :)

Got it :) I think the rest of what you have below are good modifications
to put in.  I will start working on an update.  Thx again for the review!
