Apparently my "hoping for a pull request soon" was ridiculously optimistic.
Al, looking at the most recent linux-next, most of the vfs commits
there seem to be committed in the last day or two. I'm getting the
feeling that that is all 4.5 material by now.
Should I just take the iov patch as-is, since apparently no vfs pull
request is happening this merge cycle? And no, I'm not taking
"developed during the second week of the merge window, and sent in the
last few days of it". I'm done with that.
