raw-posix: add support for write_zeroes on XFS and block devices
The code is similar to the implementation of discard and write_zeroes
with UNMAP. However, failure must be propagated up to block.c.
The stale page cache problem can be reproduced as follows:
# modprobe scsi-debug lbpws=1 lbprz=1
# ./qemu-io /dev/sdXX
qemu-io> write -P 0xcc 0 2M
qemu-io> write -z 0 1M
qemu-io> read -P 0x00 0 512
Pattern verification failed at offset 0, 512 bytes
qemu-io> read -v 0 512
00000000: cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc ................
...
# ./qemu-io --cache=none /dev/sdXX
qemu-io> write -P 0xcc 0 2M
qemu-io> write -z 0 1M
qemu-io> read -P 0x00 0 512
qemu-io> read -v 0 512
00000000: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................
...
And similarly with discard instead of "write -z".
