I'd suggest to tweak it to something like: "The mapping layer of the dio code performs all the checks required to distinguish between the shared (overwrite) and exclusive cases. Hence to support concurrent unaligned dio, first submit the request in overwrite only mode. If that returns -EAGAIN, sub-block zeroing is required. Repeat the submission with full IO exclusivity to avoid races."
