So, something like the following

	static int v9fs_vfs_write_folio_locked(struct folio *folio)
	{
		struct inode *inode = folio_inode(folio);
		struct v9fs_inode *v9inode = V9FS_I(inode);
		loff_t start = folio_pos(folio);
		loff_t i_size = i_size_read(inode);
		struct iov_iter from;
		size_t len = folio_size(folio);
		int err;

		if (start >= i_size)
			return 0; /* Simultaneous truncation occurred */

		len = min_t(loff_t, i_size - start, len);

		iov_iter_xarray(&from, ..., start, len);
		...
	}
