Capture the design of iomap and how to port filesystems to use it. Apologies for all the rst formatting, but it's necessary to distinguish code from regular text. A lot of this has been collected from various email conversations, code comments, commit messages, my own understanding of iomap, and Ritesh/Luis' previous efforts to create a document. Please note a large part of this has been taken from Dave's reply to last iomap doc patchset. Thanks to Ritesh, Luis, Dave, Darrick, Matthew, Christoph and other iomap developers who have taken time to explain the iomap design in various emails, commits, comments etc. Cc: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Cc: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> Cc: Ojaswin Mujoo <ojaswin@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@kernel.org> Inspired-by: Ritesh Harjani (IBM) <ritesh.list@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
