Subject: [PATCH] kiobuf/rawio fixes for 2.4.0-test10-pre6
X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i

Hi Linus,

Stephen Tweedies last kiobuf patchset contained a lot bu fixes
besides new features. These bug-fixes are not yet merged in 2.4.0.

This patch contains forward-ports of the follwoing fixes
(quote from his 00README):

01-mapfix.diff

	map_user_kiobuf() retries failed maps to cover a race in which
	the swapper steals a page before the kiobuf has grabbed and
	locked it.

02-iocount.diff

	Kanoj Sarcar's fixes to allow kiobufs to work properly over
	fork(), even on threaded applications.

04-eiofix.diff

	Fix to return -EIO instead of 0 if a raw I/O read or write
	encounters an error in the first block.

06-enxio.diff
	Return ENXIO on read/write at or beyond the end of the device
	for raw I/O

Please apply.

	Christoph
