The lack of flags.  Which reminds me that our IOMAP_* types have
pretty much gotten out of hand in how we use some flags that really
are different types vs others that are modifiers.  We'll need to clean
this up a bit eventually.

?  XFS does iomap based cow for direct I/O.  But we don't use IOMAP_COW
yey with this series as far as I can tell.
