[PATCH v2] iomap: iomap that extends beyond EOF should be marked dirty

[Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com>]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

When doing a direct IO that spans the current EOF, and there are
written blocks beyond EOF that extend beyond the current write, the
only metadata update that needs to be done is a file size extension.

However, we don't mark such iomaps as IOMAP_F_DIRTY to indicate that
there is IO completion metadata updates required, and hence we may
fail to correctly sync file size extensions made in IO completion
when O_DSYNC writes are being used and the hardware supports FUA.

Hence when setting IOMAP_F_DIRTY, we need to also take into account
whether the iomap spans the current EOF. If it does, then we need to
mark it dirty so that IO completion will call generic_write_sync()
to flush the inode size update to stable storage correctly.

V2: put the XFS code in the right function, tested on non-FUA
capable hardware, too.
