    mm: mark async iocb read as NOWAIT once some data has been copied · 13bd6914
    Jens Axboe authored
    Once we've copied some data for an iocb that is marked with IOCB_WAITQ,
    we should no longer attempt to async lock a new page. Instead make sure
    we return the copied amount, and let the caller retry, instead of
    returning -EIOCBQUEUED for a new page.
    
    This should only be possible with read-ahead disabled on the below
    device, and multiple threads racing on the same file. Haven't been able
    to reproduce on anything else.
