Darrick J. Wong ca19f8f510 iomap: reject delalloc mappings during writeback 
commit d320f160aa upstream.

Filesystems should never provide a delayed allocation mapping to
writeback; they're supposed to allocate the space before replying.
This can lead to weird IO errors and crashes in the block layer if the
filesystem is being malicious, or if it hadn't set iomap->dev because
it's a delalloc mapping.

Fix this by failing writeback on delalloc mappings.  Currently no
filesystems actually misbehave in this manner, but we ought to be
stricter about things like that.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
