Extents within EOF will be unshared as usual. Details are below.

The scenario has already been reproduced by syzbot[1]. The reproducer
provided by syzbot constructed the following extent maps for a file of
size 0xE00 before fallocate unshare:

0 - 4k: shared between two files
4k - 6k: hole beyond EOF, not shared
6k - 8k: delalloc extends

Then the reproducer attempted to unshare the extent between 0 and
0x2000 bytes, but the file size is 0xE00. This is likely the scenario
you were referring to?

Eventually the unshare code does:
first map: 0 - 4k - unshare successfully.
second map: 4k - 6k - hole, skip. Beyond EOF.
third map: 6k - 8k - delalloc, beyond EOF so needs zeroing.
Fires warnings because UNSHARE.

During the first call to iomap_unshare_iter(), iomap_length() returned
4k, so 4k bytes were unshared.
See discuss here[2] for more details.

It already does 'just process whatever part of the range falls within EOF'.
Check the above case.

I'm not sure if I fully understand what you mean. This patch does not
prevent unsharing extents within the EOF. This patch checks if pos is
beyond EOF, instead of checking if pos + length is beyond EOF. So the
extents within EOF should be unshared as usual.

BTW, maybe the check here should be
                  if (pos >= i_size_read(iter->inode))

If there is any misunderstanding, please let me know, thanks.
