Ahh the fun of reviewing things like iopoll that I'm not all /that/
familiar with...

Hm, is this logic here to catch the second iomap_dio_zero below the
zero_tail: label?  What happens if we have an unaligned direct write
that starts below EOF but (for whatever reason) ends the loop with pos
now above EOF but not on a block boundary?

Hmm, why is this here?  Won't this clear IOCB_HIPRI even if the first
iomap_apply call successfully creates a polled bio for the entire iovec
such that we exit the loop one line later because count becomes zero?
How does the upper layer (io_uring, I surmise?) know that there's
a bio that it should poll for?

<shrug> Unless the only effect that this has is making it so that the
subsequent calls to iomap_apply don't have the polling mode set?  I see
enough places in io_uring.c that check (iocb->ki_flags & IOCB_HIPRI) to
make me wonder if the lifetime of that flag ends as soon as we get to
->{read,write}_iter?
