Oh, I'm a fool.  This is after the call to detach_page_private() so
page->private is NULL and we don't get the iop dumped.

Nevertheless, this is interesting.  Somehow, the page is marked Uptodate,
but the bitmap is deemed not full.  There are three places where we set
an iomap page Uptodate:

1.      if (bitmap_full(iop->uptodate, i_blocks_per_page(inode, page)))
                SetPageUptodate(page);

2.      if (page_has_private(page))
                iomap_iop_set_range_uptodate(page, off, len);
        else
                SetPageUptodate(page);

3.      BUG_ON(page->index);
...
        SetPageUptodate(page);

It can't be #2 because the page has an iop.  It can't be #3 because the
page->index is not 0.  So at some point in the past, the bitmap was full.

I don't think it's possible for inode->i_blksize to change, and you
aren't running with THPs, so it's definitely not possible for thp_size()
to change.  So i_blocks_per_page() isn't going to change.

We seem to have allocated enough memory for ->iop because that's also
based on i_blocks_per_page().

I'm out of ideas.  Maybe I'll wake up with a better idea in the morning.
I've been trying to reproduce this on x86 with a 1kB block size
filesystem, and haven't been able to yet.  Maybe I'll try to setup a
powerpc cross-compilation environment tomorrow.
