SubjectRe: [PATCH] compile fix for fs/aio.c on non-highmem systems

The main problem here is that one needs different kmap types depending
on which context a function is called from (which is why I needed the
enum as a parameter to the function). Unfortunately, the amount of
memory needed for ringbuffers can grow pretty large on a system with
many tasks, so not kmapping them isn't an option. Making it a #define
certainly works quite well, but if someone has a better idea to the
kmap mess, I'd love to see it improved.
