From: "Ritesh Harjani (IBM)" <ritesh.list@xxxxxxxxx> Filesystems like ext4 can submit writes in multiples of blocksizes. But we still can't allow the writes to be split into multiple BIOs. Hence let's check if the iomap_length() is same as iter->len or not. It is the responsibility of userspace to ensure that a write does not span mixed unwritten and mapped extents (which would lead to multiple BIOs).
