Thanks for taking time to review this series!

I don't fully understand this comment, please let me confirm. Do you
suggested that we still don't write out all the data before punching /
zeroing / collapseing(i.e. drop patch 01), so we need to keep
ext4_update_disksize_before_punch()(i.e. also drop this patch), is
that right?

Thanks,
Yi.
