Yeah, that's basically what Christoph said earlier today.

Granted, nobody replied to my question about where in the kernel would
someone be using iomap to map file offsets to disk locations without
block devices, but ...

... oh, this is some weird "mash all the kernel headers together and see
if they compile" thing, isn't it?  Um, yes, iomap.h should only be
tested if CONFIG_IOMAP=y (which in turn requires CONFIG_BLOCK=y).
