Christoph Hellwig f6d6d4fcd1 [XFS] Initial pass at going directly-to-bio on the buffered IO path. This
allows us to submit much larger I/Os instead of sending down lots of small
buffer_heads.  To do this we need to have a rather complicated I/O
submission and completion tracking infrastructure.  Part of the latter has
been merged already a long time ago for direct I/O support. Part of the
problem is that we need to track sub-pagesize regions and for that we
still need buffer_heads for the time beeing.  Long-term I hope we can move
to better data strucutures and/or maybe move this to fs/mpage.c instead of
having it in XFS.  Original patch from Nathan Scott with various updates
from David Chinner and Christoph Hellwig.
