Just curious: why doesn't this series get rid of the iomap zero_page,
which would be really low hanging fruit?
I did the conversion in my first RFC series [1]. But the implementation and API for the zero
page was still under heavy discussion. So I decided to focus on that instead and leave the
conversion for later as I mentioned in the cover letter. I included blkdev_issue_zero_pages() as it
is a more straight forward conversion.
