Fcntl's



Hi all!

(1) Questions: I'd like to hear more comments regarding my FUTIME fcntl
    proposal.

(2) An idea that could be very convenient for file systems that try
    to keep the fragmentation low: what about an Fcntl opcode to inform
    the driver about the amount of bytes that *will* be written to the
    file? Desktops and copy programs (like cp) could use this.
