If we break the loop when we find the hold, out of this function we will allocate the blocks in
ocfs2_file_write_iter()->..->ocfs2_direct_IO->__blockdev_direct_IO->..->ocfs2_dio_wr_get_block()
->ocfs2_write_begin_nolock. Does this violate the semantics of 'IOCB_NOWAIT';

BTW, should we consider the down_write() and ocfs2_inode_lock() in ocfs2_dio_wr_get_block() when
the flag 'IOCB_NOWAIT' is set;
