Hi Eric,
	Thanks for the quick response.

I just wrote a simple test program by calling ioctl. It is attached. 
btw, you need to call it immediately after dd so that we have a chance 
that ext4 don't have time to allocate extents. ;)

I guess maybe filefrag use the diffrent ioctl flag, maybe 
FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC to let ext4 sync first.
