Excuse me, but this statement is completely unfair. We were specifically asked by Al and Linus to fix our char device with regards to the write/writev inconsistency. https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-rdma/msg34451.html Which is _exactly_ what this patch series does. Do you have a technical reason that this patch series does not fix the write/writev issue brought up by Al?
