2798		retval = mapping->a_ops->direct_IO(iocb, iter);
2799		if (retval >= 0) {
2800		        iocb->ki_pos += retval;
2801		        count -= retval;
2802		}
2803		if (retval != -EIOCBQUEUED)
2804		        iov_iter_revert(iter, count - iov_iter_count(iter));

2815		if (retval < 0 || !count || IS_DAX(inode))
2816		        return retval;
2817		if (iocb->ki_pos >= i_size_read(inode))

If ntfs3 is supposed to do nothing wrong with retval set to 5, why is
iov_iter_revert() invoked? Is it correct to check -EIOCBQUEUED only if
the direct_IO callback returns error?
