This looks much better.

It would be better to use the same wording as below:

How about:

-	unsigned int total = PAGE_SIZE / SECTOR_SIZE;
...
+	first += PAGE_SIZE / SECTOR_SIZE;
+	last += PAGE_SIZE / SECTOR_SIZE;
...
	for (i = first; i <= last; i++)
-		set_bit(i + total, iop->state);
+		set_bit(i, iop->state);

We might want

#define	DIRTY_BITS(x)	((x) + PAGE_SIZE / SECTOR_SIZE)

and then we could do:

+	unsigned int last = DIRTY_BITS((off + len - 1) >> inode->i_blkbits);

That might be overthinking things a bit though.

I would move the call to iomap_set_page_dirty() into
iomap_set_range_dirty() to parallel iomap_set_range_uptodate more closely.
We don't want a future change to add a call to iomap_set_range_dirty()
and miss the call to iomap_set_page_dirty().

I would move all this from the mkwrite_actor() to iomap_page_mkwrite()
and call it once with (0, PAGE_SIZE) rather than calling it once for
each extent in the page.

I'm not sure it's worth doing this calculation.  Better to just clear
the dirty bits on the entire page?  Opinions?
