From 91f79c43d1b54d7154b118860d81b39bad07dfff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Fri, 21 Mar 2014 04:58:33 -0400 Subject: new helper: iov_iter_get_pages_alloc() same as iov_iter_get_pages(), except that pages array is allocated (kmalloc if possible, vmalloc if that fails) and left for caller to free. Lustre and NFS ->direct_IO() switched to it.
