    Pull iomap updates from Darrick Wong:
     "The big change in this cycle is some new code to make it possible for
      XFS to try unaligned directio overwrites without taking locks. If the
      block is fully written and within EOF (i.e. doesn't require any
      further fs intervention) then we can let the unlocked write proceed.
      If not, we fall back to synchronizing direct writes.
    
      Summary:
    
       - Adjust the final parameter of iomap_dio_rw.
    
       - Add a new flag to request that iomap directio writes return EAGAIN
         if the write is not a pure overwrite within EOF; this will be used
         to reduce lock contention with unaligned direct writes on XFS.
    
       - Amend XFS' directio code to eliminate exclusive locking for
         unaligned direct writes if the circumstances permit"
