    Check the current vfs.git#for-next (there's even some generic_write_checks()
    work in it). The same goes for the rest of the series. Please, rebase it.

    What's more, generic_write_checks() should take iov_iter *, not the address
    of something its ->count had been copied into. Note that all callers of that
    thing end up doing iov_iter_truncate() pretty soon afterwards. I hadn't
    pushed that one out yet (there is some weirdness in ocfs2 which might be
    a bug; I want to sort that out first), but that's where it's going.
