This really should have come in during the merge window.

Yes, there are clearly several fixes in here, but at least that
FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE is clearly new development. And a lot of it
looks like just refactoring and cleanup, and again that is something
that should come in during the merge window.

But since this all affects only ntfs3, and I consider that still
fairly solidly experimental, I'll let it slide. But please keep this
in mind for next time - new work (whether cleanups or actual new code)
during the merge window, and obvious fixes afterwards.
