Please label these columns.

Anyway, this doesn't appear to work quite in the way I had in mind.  With this
patch, what I'm seeing is:

$ head -c 16384 /dev/zero > file; xfs_io -c "fiemap -v" file
file:
 EXT: FILE-OFFSET      BLOCK-RANGE      TOTAL FLAGS
   0: [0..7]:          0..7                 8 0x1008
   1: [8..15]:         2683128..2683135     8 0x1008
   2: [16..31]:        0..15               16 0x1809

So, working in 512-byte sectors, the logical sectors 0-31 are stored as one
compressed cluster in the 8 physical sectors 2683128-2683135.

The problem is, with this patch these physical sectors are reported at logical
sectors 8-15 instead of 0-7.  Obviously, this isn't particularly well-defined,
but I thought it was logical for the physical blocks to be associated with the
first logical blocks.  That is what the tests I've written (xfstest f2fs/002,
and the Android vts_kernel_encryption_test) assume.

Is there any particular reason why you wouldn't report instead:

   0: [0..7]:         2683128..2683135     8 0x1008
   1: [8..31]:        0..23                8 0x1809
