Yes.  There's the fs/direct-io.c code still used by a few block based
file systems, and then all the not block based file systems as well
(e.g. NFS, cifs).

fs/direct-io.c is easy, just grep for blockdev_direct_IO.

The others are more complicated to find, but a grep for
iov_iter_get_pages2 and iov_iter_get_pages_alloc2 in fs/ should be a
good approximation.
