This might turn into nitpicking, but it's really only useful for writing to block devices. Raw isn't a real character interface but basically a convuled way to open a block device using O_DIRECT. So I would recommend to renamed it to blkdev_aio_write, move it to fs/block_dev.c and stop exporting it. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
