Remove the function zonefs_file_dio_append() that is used to manually issue REQ_OP_ZONE_APPEND BIOs for processing synchronous direct writes and use iomap instead. To preserve the use of zone append operations for synchronous writes, different struct iomap_dio_ops are defined. For synchronous direct writes using zone append, zonefs_zone_append_dio_ops is introduced. The submit_bio operation of this structure is defined as the function zonefs_file_zone_append_dio_submit_io() which is used to change the BIO opreation for synchronous direct IO writes to REQ_OP_ZONE_APPEND. In order to preserve the write location check on completion of zone append BIOs, the end_io operation is also defined using the function zonefs_file_zone_append_dio_bio_end_io(). This check now relies on the zonefs_zone_append_bio structure, allocated together with zone append BIOs with a dedicated BIO set. This structure include the target inode of a zone append BIO as well as the target append offset location for the zone append operation. This is used to perform a check against bio->bi_iter.bi_sector when the BIO completes, without needing to use the zone information z_wpoffset field, thus removing the need for taking the inode truncate mutex.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
