Ping on this patch, and cc Jan for broader attention.

It fixed a regression (re-)introduced in v4.14-rc3, and currently only
XFS was affected (because of the iomap based DIO adoption). I've tested
it with the reproducer generic/418, LTP and full rounds of fstests runs
with different feature and block size enabled.

Thanks,
Eryu
