Subject: [PATCH] xfs: fix various problems in xfs_atomic_write_cow_iomap_begin

I think there are several things wrong with this function:

A) xfs_bmapi_write can return a much larger unwritten mapping than what
   the caller asked for.  We convert part of that range to written, but
   return the entire written mapping to iomap even though that's
   inaccurate.

B) The arguments to xfs_reflink_convert_cow_locked are wrong -- an
   unwritten mapping could be *smaller* than the write range (or even
   the hole range).  In this case, we convert too much file range to
   written state because we then return a smaller mapping to iomap.

C) It doesn't handle delalloc mappings.  This I covered in the patch
   that I already sent to the list.

D) Reassigning count_fsb to handle the hole means that if the second
   cmap lookup attempt succeeds (due to racing with someone else) we
   trim the mapping more than is strictly necessary.  The changing
   meaning of count_fsb makes this harder to notice.

E) The tracepoint is kinda wrong because @length is mutated.  That makes
   it harder to chase the data flows through this function because you
   can't just grep on the pos/bytecount strings.

F) We don't actually check that the br_state = XFS_EXT_NORM assignment
   is accurate, i.e that the cow fork actually contains a written
   mapping for the range we're interested in

G) Somewhat inadequate documentation of why we need to xfs_trim_extent
   so aggressively in this function.

H) Not sure why xfs_iomap_end_fsb is used here, the vfs already clamped
   the write range to s_maxbytes.

Fix these issues, and then the atomic writes regressions in generic/760,
generic/617, generic/091, generic/263, and generic/521 all go away for
me.
