Commit Message

Dave Kleikamp March 8, 2013, 10:52 p.m. UTC
Change the direct_IO aop to take an iov_iter argument rather than an iovec.
This will get passed down through most filesystems so that only the
__blockdev_direct_IO helper need be aware of whether user or kernel memory
is being passed to the function.
