Heh, I'm somewhat amused by the fact that I sent a variant of this patch
two years ago (for a different purpose) and you explicitly complained
about the factoring. I'm glad you've finally come around. ;)

So does this need to account for the case of an overlapping cow block
over a hole in the data fork (with cached data, if that is possible)?
IIUC we introduce that possibility just below.

The existing code doesn't currently do this but ISTM this should apply
to either allocation case, not just data fork delalloc. That could be
something for a separate patch though.

This looks like it flags the mapping new if we reserve cow blocks, which
I don't think is quite right.

Hmm, so this looks like it is in fact handling a COW blocks over a hole
case, pushing the COW mapping into the iomap. We never accounted for
that case before where we'd always just allocate to the data fork. The
change in behavior probably makes sense, but this really should be
separate from the refactoring bits to reuse the data fork delalloc code.
Beyond making this a bit easier to follow, it warrants its own commit
log description and this one makes no mention of it at all.
