I think Jan mentioned this already, and I agree, that fe_physical_length should
be left = 0 initially, and be set only when FIEMAP_EXTENT_HAS_PHYS_LEN is set
(either explicitly passed from the filesystem, OR possibly set internally by
the common fiemap code along with FIEMAP_EXTENT_HAS_PHYS_LEN if the filesystem
didn't set this flag itself.

I don't think it makes sense to set fe_physical length in this patch before
FIEMAP_EXTENT_HAS_PHYS_LEN is set, nor in the later filesystem-specific patches
that are passing "0" for the physical length instead of "len".

Cheers, Andreas
