From: Antoine Damhet <antoine.damhet@blade-group.com>

The `detect-zeroes=unmap` option may issue unaligned
`FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE` requests, raw block devices can (and will) return
`EINVAL`, qemu should then write the zeroes to the blockdev instead of
issuing an `IO_ERROR`.

I am resending this patch because:
1. I sent the first version from the wrong email address
2. I forgot to send it to the devel mailing list

Please forgive me for the inconvenience.
