Subject: [PATCH v8 04/22] Change direct_access calling convention
In order to support accesses to larger chunks of memory, pass in a
'size' parameter (counted in bytes), and return the amount available at
that address.
Support partitioning the underlying block device through a new helper
function, bdev_direct_access(), since partition handling should be done
in the block layer, not the filesystem, nor device driver.

Execute-in-place is implemented in three steps: block device operation,
address space operation, and file operations.
-A block device operation named direct_access is used to retrieve a
-reference (pointer) to a block on-disk. The reference is supposed to be
-cpu-addressable, physical address and remain valid until the release operation
-is performed. A struct block_device reference is used to address the device,
-and a sector_t argument is used to identify the individual block. As an
-alternative, memory technology devices can be used for this.
+A block device operation named direct_access is used to translate the
+block device sector number to a page frame number (pfn) that identifies
+the physical page for the memory. It also returns a kernel virtual
+address that can be used to access the memory.
+
+The direct_access method takes a 'size' parameter that indicates the
+number of bytes being requested. The function should return the number
+of bytes that it can provide, although it must not exceed the number of
+bytes requested. It may also return a negative errno if an error occurs.
The block device operation is optional, these block devices support it as of
today:
