    cifs: Cut over to using netfslib · 3ee1a1fc
    David Howells authored
    Make the cifs filesystem use netfslib to handle reading and writing on
    behalf of cifs.  The changes include:
    
     (1) Various read_iter/write_iter type functions are turned into wrappers
         around netfslib API functions or are pointed directly at those
         functions:
    
    	cifs_file_direct{,_nobrl}_ops switch to use
    	netfs_unbuffered_read_iter and netfs_unbuffered_write_iter.
    
    Large pieces of code that will be removed are #if'd out and will be removed
    in subsequent patches.
    
    [?] Why does cifs mark the page dirty in the destination buffer of a DIO
        read?  Should that happen automatically?  Does netfs need to do that?
