to provide asynchrounous (or only synchronous, if asynchronous is not
supported) I/O request support. It will eventually replace
{read,write}_pages(). None of the FS implementations implement them
yet.
* Implemented some support functions for request-based I/O. File system
implementations can use do_fd_io() which passes an I/O request to the
layer responsible for a given FD, and do_iterative_fd_io(), which
translates a request for a file to subrequests for the underlying
device and passes them on. Both fall back to synchrounous processing
when the io() hook is not supported.
Furthermore added vfs_synchronous_io() which should be handy for the
devfs to perform io_requests synchronously for devices that don't
support the io() hook.
