Hrm... FWIW, I would greatly prefer to offload these printk patches to
NFS and NFSD trees. Didn't get around to that yet, but...

As for aio-direct... Two questions:
* had anybody tried to measure the effect on branch predictor from
introducing that method vector? Commit d6afd4c4 ("iov_iter: hide iovec
details behind ops function pointers")
* WTF does aforementioned commit lack its author's s-o-b? The same
goes for a lot of zab's commits in there...
