But is this absolute or just for now it can't? In my mind this can be
done, but you are expert here. Please write about it here. This will
help who ever will implement this in future. Example why ntfs_zero_range
did not punch a hole for normal file. You did actually implement that
function for this purpose right?

Lot of grepping is done with these so use full format generic/xxx with
each of these.
Also this affects also to these, but I did not look if there is other
problems than punching.

generic/177
generic/255
generic/316
Add fixes tag here.

If this is just for now plese write example
/* TODO: Can't make hole to normal files yet. */
