** Changes since rfc v1 [1] **
1. Allocations beyond EOF also respect extsize hint however we
unlink XFS, we don't trim the blocks allocated beyond EOF due
to extsize hints. The reasoning behind this is explained in
patch 6/6.
2. Minor fixes in extsize ioctl handling logic.
Rest of the design detials can be in individual patches as well as
the original cover leter which can be found here:

Further, xfsprogs changes to enable extsize get/set for ext4 can be
found here:

Comments and suggestions are welcome!
