core: check for pre-allocated blocks in backend fs, fix it.

There is a possibility that the backend FS (like XFS) can
allocate blocks beyond EOF for better performance reasons, which
results in 'st_blocks' with higher values than what is consumed by
the file descriptor. This would break few logic inside GlusterFS,
like quota behavior etc, thus we need the exact number of blocks
which are consumed by the file to the higher layers inside GlusterFS.

Currently, this logic won't work for sparse files (ie, file with holes)
