commit fec2aa2f9ee0748fdb7148613b8a359d246cc32a

    Fixed handling of posix_fallocate() returned value
    
    According to the man pages of posix_fallocate, it returns zero on
    success or an error number on failure; however,  errno is not set
    on failure. If the kernel or a library other than glibc does not
    support the function for example, EOPNOTSUPP will be returned and
    the error will not be handled properly with original code.
