Sorry for the late reply and thanks for your suggestion, The reason why
I introduced this new helper iomap_write_end_simple() is I don't want to
open code __iomap_put_folio() in each caller since corresponding to
iomap_write_begin(), it's the responsibility for iomap_write_end_*() to
put and unlock folio, so I'd like to keep it in iomap_write_end_*().
But I don't feel strongly about it, it's also fine by me to just move
the size manipulation to the write-only code if you think it's better.

Indeed, it becomes more confused and deserve a cleanup.

Thanks,
Yi.
