Sigh, that was my mistake - I never ran fio on a Windows filesystem
(only ioengine=null) to notice this and I guess every other platform I
tried had at least posix_fallocate.

I suppose other options are:
* Just put back (modified) #ifdef guards back in around the whole case
statement: https://github.com/axboe/fio/commit/2c3e17be4c7c9a737317ada414b98929652fec15#diff-4abbf037246dd2e450dc3f6a2ac77180L48
* Add a case 0: /* fallocate N/A */ just above case FIO_FALLOCATE_NONE:
