Patch ID: 6.2.0.100

* 3703631 (Tracking ID: 3615043)

SYMPTOM:
At times, while writing to a file, data could be missed.

DESCRIPTION:
While writing to a file when delayed allocation is on, Solaris could dishonour the NON_CLUSTERING flag and

RESOLUTION:
Make sure we clear the flag and flush the exact range, in case of dalloc.
