This is preventing direct IO writes from being done into holes for
all filesystems.

Won't this truncate the entire DIO down to the length of the first
extent that is mapped?

Repeated zeroing code. helper function?

Why cmpxchg? What are we racing with here? Helper (e.g.
dio_set_error())?

Comment on the context the new flags are used under and what they
mean?
