What you're saying makes sense Ritesh and I will update it as such. I believe what Christoph was actually referring to was what I explained to Jan to the email that I just sent out. This was around the possible code duplication and having some iomap value setting related logic outside ext4_set_iomap(), when in fact there's no real reason why it can't be inside. --<M>--
