I have no idea how it breaks Andreas' case from the previous commit
message: "
iomap: Don't create iomap_page objects for inline files
In iomap_readpage_actor, don't create iop objects for inline inodes.
Otherwise, iomap_read_inline_data will set PageUptodate without setting
iop->uptodate, and iomap_page_release will eventually complain.

To prevent this kind of bug from occurring in the future, make sure the
page doesn't have private data attached in iomap_read_inline_data.
"

After this patch, iomap_read_inline_data() will set iop->uptodate with
iomap_set_range_uptodate() rather than set PageUptodate() directly, 
so iomap_page_release won't complain.

Am I missing something?

Thanks,
