Subject: rework aio migrate pages to use aio fs
From: Benjamin LaHaise <bcrl@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 71ad7490c1f32bd7829df76360f9fa17829868f3 upstream.
Don't abuse anon_inodes.c to host private files needed by aio;
we can bloody well declare a mini-fs of our own instead of
patching up what anon_inodes can create for us.
