Hi Jens, Al, Christoph,

Here are patches to make some changes that Christoph requested[1] to the
new generic file splice functions that I implemented[2].  Apart from one
functional change, they just altering the styling and move one of the
functions to a different file:

 (1) Rename the main functions:

	generic_file_buffered_splice_read() -> filemap_splice_read()
	generic_file_direct_splice_read()   -> direct_splice_read()

 (2) Abstract out the calculation of the location of the head pipe buffer
     into a helper function in linux/pipe_fs_i.h.

 (3) Use init_sync_kiocb() in filemap_splice_read().

     This is where the functional change is.  Some kiocb fields are then
     filled in where they were set to 0 before, including setting ki_flags
     from f_iocb_flags.  I've filtered out IOCB_NOWAIT as the function is
     supposed to be synchronous.

 (4) Move filemap_splice_read() to mm/filemap.c.  filemap_get_pages() can
     then be made static again.

I've pushed the patches here also:

	https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs.git/log/?h=iov-extract-3

I've also updated worked the changes into the commits on my iov-extract
branch if that would be preferable, though that means Jens would need to
update his for-6.3/iov-extract again.
