I understand that fat can map fallocated blocks in read case while
user is using bmap.
But I can not find the case allocate new blocks.
If I am missing something, Could you please elaborate more ?
Is it a case of _bmap request returning the block number for block
allocated in parallel write path ?

Thanks.
