Subject: linux-next: manual merge of the akpm-current tree with the
 aio-direct tree

Hi Andrew,

Today's linux-next merge of the akpm-current tree got a conflict in
mm/filemap.c between commit 6c45b468c3e6 ("s: pull iov_iter use higher up
the stack") from the aio-direct tree and commit ebde8e7e937d ("mm: drop
actor argument of do_generic_file_read()") from the akpm-current tree.

I fixed it up (see below - thanks, Dave, for the hint patch) and can
carry the fix as necessary (no action is required).

Cheers,
Stephen Rothwell                    sfr@...b.auug.org.au
