[dm-devel] [RFC PATCH 7/9] dm thin: add method to provision space

This is a hacky interface added to support the filesystem experiment for
reserving blocks out of thin pools. The XFS POC uses this method
provision space in the pool when blocks are allocated. The number of
actual blocks allocated is returned, which is used to update the
filesystem accounting.
