Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Removing aio_write from NTFS

From: Anton Altaparmakov <anton@...era.com>

Hi Al,

As you requested at LSF, these two patches change NTFS from aio_write to 
write_iter.

I know you were sceptical about the addition of a multi page fault in function 
but please take a look at my patches and see if it is acceptable.  If not, 
let me know and I will do it inside NTFS itself without introducing a generic 
function...

If you are happy with the patches, please feel free to send them onto Linus 
or let me know to send them myself.

Note you can also pull the patches from:

	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/aia21/ntfs.git

Best regards,

	Anton

Anton Altaparmakov (2):
  VFS: Add iov_iter_fault_in_multipages_readable() which is simillar to 
       iov_iter_fault_in_readable() but differs in that it is not
    limited to     faulting in the first iovec and instead faults in
    "bytes" bytes     iterating over the iovecs as necessary.
  NTFS: Version 2.1.32 - Update file write from aio_write to write_iter.
