That's what I thought -- we only see NULL_ADDR for holes and delalloc
extents, and we already check for both of those.  But I didn't see
anything in iomap.h expressly saying that, so I decided to be defensive
and check it anyway.

IOWs it would be helpful to have a little more documentation about which
flags go together, particularly for things like IOMAP_F_BOUNDARY that
don't have any meaning in xfs.

Yeah, the v3 patch looks ok.
