Discussions with Darrick before he went on vacation/honeymoon was that
up until now changes to fs/iomap.c had been going through XFS, but
since these changes didn't affect XFS, and the rest of the patch
series touches ext4 and ext4 functionality, that he was OK with
running this patch series through the ext4 tree.  I'm OK as well, so
unless Al has any objections?
