From: "Darrick J. Wong" <djwong@kernel.org>

Add a new inode flag to require that all file data extent mappings must
be aligned (both the file offset range and the allocated space itself)
to the extent size hint.  Having a separate COW extent size hint is no
longer allowed.

The goal here is to enable sysadmins and users to mandate that all space
mappings in a file must have a startoff/blockcount that are aligned to
(say) a 2MB alignment and that the startblock/blockcount will follow the
same alignment.
