I guess we only use 'blkmap' in a few places in the kernel, and nobody's
going to confuse us with UFS.

Hmm, what kind of new name?

struct iomap_buffer_head *ibh;	/* NO */
struct iomap_folio_state *ifs;
struct iomap_state *is;		/* shorter, but what is 'state'? */
struct iomap_blkmap *ibm;	/* lolz */

I think iomap_blkmap sounds fine, since we're probably going to end up
exporting it (and therefore need a clear namespace) as soon as one of
the filesystems that uses page->private to stash per-page info wants to
use iomap for buffered io.
