No need to typecast a void pointer

You must have a reference on your fileio backend file, right?
This could be a BUG_ON()

I did not see in the first patch that you do this check when actually sending
the VPD page. I only saw that it is enabled if set from configfs. (Sorry for
the noise if I missed it). So you might want to call a target specific function
when sending the VPD page. This way this will never happen right?

TODO: Lots of extent based filesystems could enjoy if you punch an hole
      in the file. (Which will also send a proper discard).
      So how to punch an hole in a file via vfs?
