Nost of this actually was done (and pushed to a semi-public tree) in
2023.  But I guess I touched it enough in 2024 to cover that.

I'll give it a spin.

Unlike "regular" XFS writeback, which tries to convert large extents from
preallocations (or just large ranges), zoned writeback works a single
folio at time, that there is a new mapping for each folio.  And these are
only dummy mappings anyway.  So all work happens on folios that are
locked or have the writeback bit set and are off limits to other
writeback threads, new buffered writers or invalidation.  I guess I
need to document this better.

It should, and I plan to pass the iter when reworking this towards
the iter model.  Hopefully I can get to that relatively soon after
this project lands.
