Well, if you say so.. I have no idea what hypfs provides,
if you think that some one can do vector and/or async
operations on these files, its worth adding the complexity.

I was inclined towards just dealing with only single entry
in the vector and fail if some one called with multiple vectors.
But, its your call. Here is the complete code - completely untested :(
Could you please compile and test it ?

Thanks,
Badari

Vectorize aio interfaces to hypfs to fit new vfs ops interfaces.
