The generic_write_checks will check the combination of IOCB_NOWAIT and
!IOCB_DIRECT.

True, however btrfs will return ENOSUPP whereas the generic code returns
EINVAL. I guess this is not a big deal and it's likely generic code is
correct, so:

I tried to check the git history if there are some clues for that. The
duplicate checks could be a intermediate step before the aio/nowait
feature was complete but somehow not removed at the end.

The btrfs part was Added in commit
91f9943e1c7b6638f27312d03fe71fcc67b23571 "fs: support RWF_NOWAIT for
buffered reads" (4.13)

The generic checks were added in
6be96d3ad34a124450028dabba43f07fe1d0c86d (4.12), so from that it seems
that it was added tot btrfs as redundant already.
