I agree that nfsd needs a patch as well. nfsd4_block_proc_layoutget()
could trim every extent after the first to start at the offset asked
for, moving soff by the same amount for the written and unwritten ones.
If that sounds right, I can send a patch for it.

This patch still makes sense as it is. Mapping to the end of the extent
can only be done in XFS, and with the trim in XFS as well, the stable
fix does not depend on the nfsd patch. What the trim costs shows in the
4 KiB random row of the table: 15 LAYOUTGETs instead of 1, with no
clear change in I/Os done.
