Not sure what the point of this assignment is if we're going to return,
but that's not a valid fork either way. Did you mean to assign
wpc->io_type?

So this lifts the cow I/O type check from xfs_map_cow(). That path would
set imap_valid and new_type and return, which essentially looks like a
"blocks found" case where we go ahead and add the buffer to the ioend.
Now we set the same values, but we have to call xfs_map_blocks() to make
sure we cover the cow blocks overlap case that xfs_map_cow() used to
handle.

Shouldn't passing this check effectively jump straight to to the buffer
add? Otherwise it looks like we unconditionally attempt to allocate
blocks in the cow fork.

Alternatively...

... perhaps this could change to something like:

		if (!wpc->imap_valid ||
		    (xfs_is_reflink_inode(XFS_I(inode)) &&
		     wpc->io_type != XFS_IO_COW))
			error = ...

... so the logic is a bit more clear. E.g., we always need to look up in
the COW fork for reflink inodes unless we're already doing COW I/O. Hm?
