Yes ... and I see the consequence. I mean, this is a "shouldn't happen",
so do we want to put effort into cleanup here ...

... or do we just want to run slap bang into this bug?
Option 1: Remove the check for 'ret == 0' altogether, as we had it before.
That puts us into endless loop territory for a failure mode, and it's not
parallel with iomap_readpage().
Option 2: Remove the WARN_ON from the check. Then we just hit the BUG_ON,
but we don't know why we did it.
Option 3: Set cur_page to NULL. We'll hit the WARN_ON, avoid the BUG_ON,
might end up with a page in the page cache which is never unlocked.
Option 4: Do the unlock/put page dance before setting the cur_page to NULL.
We might double-unlock the page.
There are probably other options here too.
