I don't think adding the IOCB_CMD_{READ,WRITE}_ITER operations to
include/uapi/linux/aio_abi.h is the right thing to do here -- they're
never going to be used by userland, and care certainly not part of the
abi we're presenting to userland. I'd suggest moving these opcodes to
include/linux/aio.h. Also, if you make the values > 16 bits, userland
will never be able to pass them in inadvertently (although things look
okay if that does happen at present).
