Afaik the only filesystems where the filesystem driver is involved in these operations are the next-gen filesystems like ZFS and Btrfs, where you can issue requests to relocate blocks to the driver and it will actually do the leg work while the filesystem is still online and usable by other applications/users. (used by balance, scrub, remove device, and shrink partition size)
