Why?  This isn't what I'd expect from black boxing the API, from a
userspace point of view the transfer is atomic and in an ideal world
we'd be able to do direct to/from memory transfers rather than memcpy()
into kernel space which means that userspace should assume the transfers
are going on simultaneously even if they don't currently.
