Shouldn't we "return -ENOTSUPP" ?
Given we are later going to add support for ocount > sb_blocksize.

So far we have been reporting -EINVAL for an invalid atomic write size 
(according to atomic write unit min and max reported for that inode).

-ENOTSUPP is used for times when we just don't support atomic writes, 
like non-DIO.
