This also needs to check for pos+len > dio->i_size on a write as
iomap_dio_rw_actor will do unconditional sub-block zeroing in that
case, too.

I'd describe it a little bit differently, clearly indicating that
this is for optional behaviour and not needed on all unaligned DIO.

/*
 * Filesystems may need to special case DIO that is not aligned to
 * block boundaries. If they set IOMAP_DIO_UNALIGNED on an unaligned
 * IO, then do not allocate blocks or zero partial blocks, but
 * instead fall back to the caller by returning -EAGAIN so they can
 * handle these conditions correctly.
 */

Cheers,

Dave.

There are a number of things that DIO has to be aligned to -- memory
addresses, for example.  Can we be a little more verbose about what is
unaligned here?  eg

	if (dio_flags & IOMAP_DIO_FS_UNALIGNED)

(or FSBLK_UNALIGNED, or ... something).

I've renamed it to IOMAP_DIO_SUBBLOCK

The code changes look fine, but as for the name, I found it a little
confusing even after changing it to IOMAP_DIO_SUBBLOCK.

See my reply to patch 11 for more details.
