Hi,
Inorder to support AIO for raw/O_DIRECT, I need to add "struct kiocb *" to generic_file_direct_IO() and all direct_IO() ops.
generic_file_direct_IO(int rw, struct file *file, const struct iovec *iov, loff_t offset, unsigned long nr_segs)
Instead of adding a new argument, I propose replace
"struct file *file" argument with "struct kiocb *iocb"
One can get "filp" from iocb->ki_filp.
Any objections ?
