While reviewing whether MAP_SYNC should strengthen its current guarantee of syncing writes from the initiating process to also include third-party readers observing dirty metadata, Dave pointed out that the check of IOMAP_WRITE is misplaced. The policy of what to with IOMAP_F_DIRTY should be separated from the generic filesystem mechanism of reporting dirty metadata. Move this policy to the fs-dax core to simplify the per-filesystem iomap handlers, and further centralize code that implements the MAP_SYNC policy. This otherwise should not change behavior, it just makes it easier to change behavior in the future.
