Thanks!
I have following questions for this and will appreciate

A policy decision like this is
I plan to test the persistent preallocation patches on a huge sparse
device, to know if 32 bit physical block numbers (upto 48bit) behave as
expected. I have following questions for this and will appreciate
suggestions here:
a) What should be the sparse device size which I should use for testing?
