We can't just bail out after iomap_write_inline_data in
iomap_writepage_map; the page also needs to be unlocked.  Also, we want
to dirty the inode after copying out the inline data and unlocking the
page to make sure the inode gets written out.

Not sure if this can be further simplified.

Tested on gfs2 on top of:

 [PATCH v9] iomap: Support file tail packing [1]
 [PATCH v2] iomap: Support inline data with block size < page size [2]
 [PATCH] gfs2: iomap inline data handling cleanup [3]
