Attached are some additional tests using sync_file_range, dd, an SSD and a normal SATA disk. The test program -- overwrite.c -- is unchanged from my last posting, basically the same as Linus's except with posix_fadvise()

Oh, and, as run-test.sh shows, these tests were done with the file pre-allocated and sync'd to disk.

The dd and overwrite invocations that follow the first dd invocation do /not/ require the fs to allocate new blocks.
