For the direct I/O changes that follow in this patch series, we need to accommodate for the case where the block mapping flags passed through to ext4_map_blocks() result in m_flags having both EXT4_MAP_MAPPED and EXT4_MAP_UNWRITTEN bits set. In order for any allocated unwritten extents to be converted correctly in the ->end_io() handler, the iomap->type must be set to IOMAP_UNWRITTEN for cases where the EXT4_MAP_UNWRITTEN bit has been set within m_flags. Hence the reason why we need to reshuffle this conditional statement around. This change is a no-op for DAX as the block mapping flags passed through to ext4_map_blocks() i.e. EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_CREATE_ZERO never results in both EXT4_MAP_MAPPED and EXT4_MAP_UNWRITTEN being set at once.

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.
