Hi Zorro,

there is no real dependency between fallocate modes, so it is this way for
historical reasons and it might be different for different fs. Not that

The test fails (while the others does not) because we tend to redirect
stderr as well, but we are not doing it here.

IMO the better fix would be to add 2>&1
