Seeing as written either contains iter->processed if it's positive, or
zero if nothing got written or there were errors, I wonder why this
isn't just:

	if (!xfs_is_cow_inode(ip));
		return 0;

	if (!written) {
		xfs_reflink_cancel_cow_range(ip, pos, length, true);
		return 0;
	}

	return xfs_reflink_end_cow(ip, pos, written);

? (He says while cleaning up trying to leave for vacation, pardon me
if this comment is totally boneheaded...)
