I think fpunch is broken here -- xfs definitely supports having
unwritten mappings in the middle of an allocation unit.  See below.

Looking at commit fe341eb151ec0 ("xfs: ensure that fpunch, fcollapse,
and finsert operations are aligned to rt extent size"), I think the
logic in xfs_free_file_space is wrong.  If bunmapi is told to unmap a
partial rt extent, it will instead convert it to unwritten; it only
unmaps full rt extents.  For punch that's ok because punch
opportunistically removes blocks and zeroes the unaligned segments; for
zero that's ok because it will falloc the sparse holes and zero the
rest.

It's only collapse and insert that *require* alignment.  That's
something that should be checked during input validation, and I think
that got fixed by 25219dbfa734e ("xfs: fix fallocate functions when
rtextsize is larger than 1").

"W", not "x", as you noted.

Hmm.  At point D we still hold i_rwsem and the invalidate_lock, so could
we convert the underlying blocks to unwritten here instead of writing
them all out?  Once we reduce i_size, writeback will stop at EOF, right?

D:
              |<-    extszie   ->|
              zzzzzzzzz
              ZUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
              ^       ^          ^
            new EOF   |       (old EOF)
                      folio boundary
