I don't understand how this bit works:

Imagine you have a file with bytes 0-2047 in an extent which is !INLINE
and bytes 2048-2051 in the INLINE extent. When you read the page, first
you create an iop for the !INLINE extent. Then this function is called
again for the INLINE extent and you'll hit the WARN_ON_ONCE. No?
