I would think we'd want to support any combination of
FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE and FALLOC_FL_UNSHARE_RANGE..? All of the other
commands support the former modifier, for one. It also looks like if
somebody attempts to invoke with mode == FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE, even with
the current upstream code that would perform the bdev truncate before
returning -EOPNOTSUPP. That seems like a bit of an unfortunate side
effect to me.

WRT to unshare, if the PROVISION request is always going to imply an
unshare (which seems reasonable to me), there's probably no reason to
-EOPNOTSUPP if a caller explicitly passes UNSHARE_RANGE.
