Trying to reverse engineer the error case based on the flags passed
seems a bit problematic, even if I think for now it mostl still
works as !FGP_CREAT is exclusive vs IOMAP_NOWAIT.

Matthew, what do you think of switching __filemap_get_folio to an
ERR_PTR return and return actual cause?  Or do we have too many
callers and need ____filemap_get_folio (urrg..)?

Nit: I'd check for -ENODATA one level of identation out to keep
the nesting limited:

		status = iomap_write_begin(iter, pos, bytes, &folio, fgp);
		if (status == -ENODATA) {
			...
			goto loop_continue;
		}
		if (status)
 			return status;
