Hmm, I spoke too soon.  This is causing a test failure when applied
against the maint branch.  I know that you developed this versus the
next branch, so it's possible the bug in ext2fs_punch() was fixed
next.  I'm going to drop this from the maint branch for now, I'll take
a closer look at this after going through the rest of the bug fix
patches, and see whether it works when applied against next (in which
case I'll have to see which bug fix we need to apply to backport the
fix to the maint branch).
