Pretty sure this needs to use BLKDEV_ZERO_NOUNMAP.
The whole point of this is having zeroed space allocated ready for
write on return, so having the hardware optimise away the physical
storage zeroing by punching a hole in it's backing store and then
potentially getting ENOSPC on the next write to this range would be
.... suboptimal.
