I can prefix iomap_ so it will then become iomap_iop_alloc()/iomap_iop_free().
All other helpers will be like...
- iomap_iop_set_range_uptodate()
- iomap_iop_set_range_dirty()
- ...

'iomap_iop' prefix just helps distinguish all the APIs which are
working over iomap_page (iop) structure.

Sure. Will take care of it in the next rev.
