Historically, the XFS iomap_begin function only returned mappings for
exactly the range queried, i.e. it doesn't do XFS_BMAPI_ENTIRE lookups.
The current vfs iomap consumers are only set up to deal with trimmed
mappings.  xfs_xattr_iomap_begin does BMAPI_ENTIRE lookups, which is
inconsistent with the current iomap usage.  Remove the flag so that both
iomap_begin functions behave the same way.

FWIW this also fixes a behavioral regression in xattr FIEMAP that was
introduced in 4.8 wherein attr fork extents are no longer trimmed like
they used to be.

I would still prefer to trim in the iomap code.  But I'll need to find
some time to look into that, so until then here is my reluctant ACK:

I started looking into that -- the iomap trimming is easy, but the data
fork iomap_begin (with a BMAPI_ENTIRE lookup) gets tripped up on
trimming the iomap around shared extents, because if we have an extent:
(R = regular, S = shared block)

01234567
RRRSSSSS

and we ask for iomap_begin(off=3, len=5) we return RRR (because we trim
to the first change in sharedness status) and not the SSSSS we expect and
then everything goes nuts.... so in the meantime we'll just restore the
old XFS behavior and bikeshed fiemap^W^Wclean it up later.
