Replace ->map_blocks with a new ->writeback_range, which differs in the following ways: - it must also queue up the I/O for writeback, that is called into the slightly refactored and extended in scope iomap_add_to_ioend for each region - can handle only a part of the requested region, that is the retry loop for partial mappings moves to the caller - handles cleanup on failures as well, and thus also replaces the discard_folio method only implemented by XFS. This will allow to use the iomap writeback code also for file systems that are not block based like fuse.

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 reStructuredText 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.
