here are the changes we currently need on top of what you've posted on
July 1.  On top of the page dirtying which you patch accidentally
dropped in gfs2_unstuffer_page, there are two places in which we also
need to call iomap_page_create to attach an iomap_page structure to the
pages.

The first place is in gfs2_unstuffer_page, which converts an inline
(stuffed) file into a regular file.  This is implemented in a filesystem
specific way, and I don't think there is any point in trying to make
this more generic.

The second place is in gfs2_page_mkwrite.  This function should
eventually be changed to call iomap_page_mkwrite instead, but we can
just fix it as below just to get this working.

Currently, iomap_page_create is a static function in
fs/iomap/buffered-io.c, so we need to export it before these changes
will work.

I'm still trying to track down consistency problems with a 1k blocksize
in xfstests generic/263 and generic/300, and that is with the mmap
locking issue fixed that Dave Chinner has pointed out [*].  This problem
existed even before your changes, so your changes seem to be working
correctly.

Thanks again,
Andreas
