Subject: [AIO] aio-next changes for 3.12

Hello Andrew,

Please consider pulling the following changes from my aio-next tree at:

	git://git.kvack.org/~bcrl/aio-next.git

which covers changes since commit 47188d39b5deeebf41f87a02af1b3935866364cf.

These changes have been baking in the linux-next tree for the last few 
months.  The bulk of this work comes from Kent Overstreet which reworks 
and improve performance of the AIO core and lays the foundation for his 
batch completion work.  Also included is Gu Zheng's cleanups of my work 
to enable page migration in the AIO core, which fixes hot unplug of 
memory pinned by AIO.  The last few patches are fixes by me for some of 
the issues uncovered in this change set during its testing.
