Badari Pulavarty 027445c372 [PATCH] Vectorize aio_read/aio_write fileop methods
This patch vectorizes aio_read() and aio_write() methods to prepare for
collapsing all aio & vectored operations into one interface - which is
aio_read()/aio_write().

*
* High-performance uncached I/O for the Linux NFS client
*
* There are important applications whose performance or correctness
* depends on uncached access to file data. Database clusters
* (multiple copies of the same instance running on separate hosts)
* implement their own cache coherency protocol that subsumes file
* system cache protocols. Applications that process datasets
* considerably larger than the client's memory do not always benefit
* from a local cache. A streaming video server, for instance, has no
* need to cache the contents of a file.
*
* When an application requests uncached I/O, all read and write requests
* are made directly to the server; data stored or fetched via these
* requests is not cached in the Linux page cache. The client does not
* correct unaligned requests from applications. All requested bytes are
* held on permanent storage before a direct write system call returns to
* an application.
*
* Solaris implements an uncached I/O facility called directio() that
* is used for backups and sequential I/O to very large files. Solaris
* also supports uncaching whole NFS partitions with "-o forcedirectio,"
* an undocumented mount option.
*
* Designed by Jeff Kimmel, Chuck Lever, and Trond Myklebust, with
* help from Andrew Morton.
*
* 18 Dec 2001 Initial implementation for 2.4 --cel
* 08 Jul 2002 Version for 2.4.19, with bug fixes --trondmy
* 08 Jun 2003 Port to 2.5 APIs --cel
* 31 Mar 2004 Handle direct I/O without VFS support --cel
* 15 Sep 2004 Parallel async reads --cel
* 04 May 2005 support O_DIRECT with aio --cel

* We use this function for direct writes instead of calling
* generic_file_aio_write() in order to avoid taking the inode
* semaphore and updating the i_size. The NFS server will set
* the new i_size and this client must read the updated size
* back into its cache. We let the server do generic write
* parameter checking and report problems.
*
* We also avoid an unnecessary invocation of generic_osync_inode(),
* as it is fairly meaningless to sync the metadata of an NFS file.
*
* We eliminate local atime updates, see direct read above.
*
* We avoid unnecessary page cache invalidations for normal cached
* readers of this file.
*
* Note that O_APPEND is not supported for NFS direct writes, as there
* is no atomic O_APPEND write facility in the NFS protocol.
