block: workaround for unaligned byte range in fallocate()
Revert the commit 118f99442d 'block/io.c: fix for the allocation failure' and use better error handling for file systems that do not support fallocate() for an unaligned byte range. Allow falling back to pwrite in case fallocate() returns EINVAL.
