The position calculation in iomap_bmap() shifts bno the wrong way,
so we don't progress properly and end up re-mapping block zero
over and over, yielding an unchanging physical block range as the
logical block advances:
# filefrag -Be file
ext: logical_offset: physical_offset: length: expected: flags:
0: 0.. 0: 21.. 21: 1: merged
1: 1.. 1: 21.. 21: 1: 22: merged
Discontinuity: Block 1 is at 21 (was 22)
2: 2.. 2: 21.. 21: 1: 22: merged
Discontinuity: Block 2 is at 21 (was 22)
3: 3.. 3: 21.. 21: 1: 22: merged
This breaks the FIBMAP interface for anyone using it (XFS), which
in turn breaks LILO, zipl, etc.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
