Pardon my ignorance since this is the first time I've had a crack at
this patchset, but why is it necessary to carry the "bytes copied"
count from the /previous/ iomap_dio_rw call all the way through to dio
completion of the current call?

If the directio operation succeeds even partially and the PARTIAL flag
is set, won't that push the iov iter ahead by however many bytes
completed?

In other words, why won't this loop work for gfs2?

	size_t copied = 0;
	while (iov_iter_count(iov) > 0) {
		ssize_t ret = iomap_dio_rw(iocb, iov, ..., IOMAP_DIO_PARTIAL);
		if (iov_iter_count(iov) == 0 || ret != -EFAULT)
			break;

		copied += ret;
		/* strange gfs2 relocking I don't understand */
		/* deal with page faults... */
	};
	if (ret < 0)
		return ret;
	return copied + ret;

It feels clunky to make the caller pass the results of a previous
operation through the current operation just so the caller can catch the
value again afterwards.  Is there something I'm missing?
