I'm in the middle of re-working the DIO code.  You can pull from my git tree

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/josef/btrfs-unstable-josef.git;a=summary

Pull from the my-dio branch.  It survives fsx, but it fails on 5 out of 7 AIO
tests in xfstests, which I'm tracking down.  Thanks,

Josef
