I /think/ a subsequent patch would look like this:

+	/* No need to create an iop if the page is within an extent */
+	loff_t page_pos = page_offset(page);
+	if (pos > page_pos || pos + length < page_pos + page_size(page))
+		iop = iomap_page_create(inode, page);

but that might miss some other reasons to create an iop.
