I think you're referring to Dave's earlier question of "Why don't you
just use xfs_file_aio_write_checks?"

It's tempting to adapt xfs_file_aio_write_checks for reflink, but I
think I have to create a new function because (a) we don't have a kiocb
to pass in, and (b) we have to lock two inodes for reflink while abiding
the [VX]FS inode locking rules and making sure we break the destination
flie's layout correctly.

Yes, there are a number of behavioral inconsistencies between regular
write and clonerange that have been discovered in the past few days, and
it's going to take me a few days to clean all of this up:

- Lack of file_update_times(), though the ctime update is open-coded in
  the reflink routines.

- Lack of file_remove_privs() to drop suid and capabilities on write.
  Totally missing from the btrfs implementation and xfs/ocfs2 followed
  that behavior warts and all.

- Lack of RLIMIT_FSIZE checking: D'oh.  Same lame excuse as above.

- Lack of MAX_NON_LFS size checking: Same.

- Lack of s_maxbytes checking: Same.  Alarming since this means we can
  reflink to offsets the pagecache doesn't support.

- Should our clonerange return bytes reflinked to copy_file_range?

That last one requires more careful consideration & will take longer;
the first two are nearly ready.
