Which means you are now placing a new constraint on this code in
that we cannot ever, in future, zero entire blocks here.

This code can issue arbitrary sized zeroing bios - multiple entire fs blocks
blocks if necessary - so I think constraining it to only support
partial block zeroing by adding a warning like this is no correct.

So if "pos" overlaps a 2^32 offset when a certain mode is used, we
have to break up the IO?

If true, I'm not sure that this belongs here. Limiting the size of
the IOs because of filesytem contraints belongs in the filesystem
extent mapping code. That's the point where the IO is broken up into
maximally sized chunks the filesystem can issue as a contiguous
range. If the fscrypt code is breaking that "contiguous IO range"
because of the mode being used, the fs mapping code should break
the mapping at the boundery where the IO needs to be broken.

Hence the dio mapping code here will never build IOs that cross this
-filesystem- encryption limitation, and we don't need this fscrypt
code in the direct IO path at all.

Cheers,

Dave.
