I wish you'd made the variable renaming and the function reorganization
separate patches.  The renaming looks correct to me, but moving these
calls adds a logic bomb.

If at some point iomap_write_end actually starts returning partial write
completions (e.g. you wrote 250 bytes, but for some reason the pagecache
only acknowledges 100 bytes were written) then this code no longer
reverts the iter or truncates posteof pagecache correctly...

...because now we only do that if the pagecache refuses to acknowledge
any bytes written at all.  I think it actually works correctly with
today's kernel since __iomap_write_end only returns copied or 0, but the
size_t return type implies that a short acknowledgement is theoretically
possible.

IOWs, doesn't this adds a logic bomb?
