Merge branch 'for-linus-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull vfs update from Al Viro:
 "Part one:

   - struct filename-related cleanups

   - saner iov_iter_init() replacements (and switching the syscalls to
     use of those)

   - ntfs switch to ->write_iter() (Anton)

   - aio cleanups and splitting iocb into common and async parts
     (Christoph)

   - assorted fixes (me, bfields, Andrew Elble)

  There's a lot more, including the completion of switchover to
  ->{read,write}_iter(), d_inode/d_backing_inode annotations, f_flags
  race fixes, etc, but that goes after #for-davem merge.  David has
  pulled it, and once it's in I'll send the next vfs pull request"

* 'for-linus-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (35 commits)
  sg_start_req(): use import_iovec()
  sg_start_req(): make sure that there's not too many elements in iovec
  blk_rq_map_user(): use import_single_range()
  sg_io(): use import_iovec()
  process_vm_access: switch to {compat_,}import_iovec()
  switch keyctl_instantiate_key_common() to iov_iter
  switch {compat_,}do_readv_writev() to {compat_,}import_iovec()

-/**
- * ntfs_fault_in_pages_readable -

- * Fault a number of userspace pages into pagetables.
- *
- * Unlike include/linux/pagemap.h::fault_in_pages_readable(), this one copes
- * with more than two userspace pages as well as handling the single page case
- * elegantly.
- *
- * If you find this difficult to understand, then think of the while loop being
- * the following code, except that we do without the integer variable ret:
- *
- *	do {
- *		ret = __get_user(c, uaddr);
- *		uaddr += PAGE_SIZE;
- *	} while (!ret && uaddr < end);
- *
- * Note, the final __get_user() may well run out-of-bounds of the user buffer,
- * but _not_ out-of-bounds of the page the user buffer belongs to, and since
- * this is only a read and not a write, and since it is still in the same page,
- * it should not matter and this makes the code much simpler.
