4) calculate st_blocks by merging based upon bitmap (dmpath)

Some applications may not like st_blksize either since it may be
different per block.

One more difficulty (hard to support issue).
- open a file on deltafs
- unlink it
- rmdir its parent
- write or fchmod to it
- rewind+read or mmap+read from the opened file
- cat it be read correctly?
