I think that should depend on how the filesystem implements unsharing:
assuming that we use provision on first allocation, unsharing on xfs
should result in xfs calling REQ_OP_PROVISION on the newly allocated
blocks first. But for ext4, we'd fail UNSHARE_RANGE unless provision
(instead of noprovision, provision_on_alloc), in which case, we'd send
REQ_OP_PROVISION.
