      [PATCH] remove kiobufs · 2dcb8ff9
      Andrew Morton authored
      This patch from Christoph Hellwig removes the kiobuf/kiovec
      infrastructure.
      
      This affects three subsystems:
      
      video-buf.c:
      
         This patch includes an earlier diff from Gerd which converts
          video-buf.c to use get_user_pages() directly.
      
         Gerd has acked this patch.
      
      LVM1:
      
         Is now even more broken.
      
      drivers/mtd/devices/blkmtd.c:
      
         blkmtd is broken by this change.  I contacted Simon Evans, who
         said "I had done a rewrite of blkmtd anyway and just need to convert
         it to BIO.  Feel free to break it in the 2.5 tree, it will force me
         to finish my code."
      
      Neither EVMS nor LVM2 use kiobufs.  The only remaining breakage
      of which I am aware is a proprietary MPEG2 streaming module.  It
      could use get_user_pages().

      [PATCH] msync correctness fixes · 59791303
      Andrew Morton authored
      From Anton Blanchard.  This fixes a couple of Linux Test Project
      failures.
      
      - Returns EBUSY if the caller is trying to invalidate memory which is
        covered by a locked vma.
      
        The open group say:
      
        [EBUSY]
                Some or all of the addresses in the range starting
                at addr and continuing for len bytes are locked,
                and MS_INVALIDATE is specified.
      
      - Returns EINVAL if the caller specified both MS_SYNC and MS_ASYNC
      
        [EINVAL]
                The value of flags is invalid.
      
        and:
      
                "Either MS_ASYNC or MS_SYNC is specified, but not both."

      [PATCH] enable 64-bit sector_t config option · 0e296d85
      Andrew Morton authored
      CONFIG_LBD was initially hardwired to "on" for testing.  That seems to
      have gone OK, so now make it configurable.
