generic_write_checks() may modify iov_iter_count(), so we must get the
count after the call, not before. Using the wrong one has a couple of
consequences:
1. We check a longer range in check_can_nocow() for nowait than we're
actually writing.
2. We create extra hole extent maps in btrfs_cont_expand(). As far as I
can tell, this is harmless, but I might be missing something.
These issues are pretty minor, but let's fix it before something more
important trips on it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
