I don't think it's a good idea to expose implementation details through
a VFS level API.  Since this is only for debugging purposes...

$ xfs_io -c 'bmap -c' /somefile

...should suffice and doesn't have the side effect of flushing dirty
file data.

FWIW, all the other fiemap implementations need to reject
FIEMAP_FLAG_COW if they don't know what that is.
