[PATCH v3 0/7] kiocb_{start,end}_write() helpers

[Amir Goldstein <amir73il@gmail.com>]

Christian,

This is an attempt to consolidate the open coded lockdep fooling in
all those async io submitters into a single helper.
The idea to do that consolidation was suggested by Jan.

This re-factoring is part of a larger vfs cleanup I am doing for
fanotify permission events.  The complete series is not ready for
prime time yet, but this one patch is independent and I would love
to get it reviewed/merged a head of the rest.

This v3 series addresses the review comments of Jens on v2 [1].

Thanks,
Amir.

Changes since v2:
- Split patches to helpers and use helpers per caller (Jens)
- Drop IOCB_WRITE_STARTED flag

Changes since v1:
- Leave ISREG checks in callers (Jens)
- Leave setting IOCB_WRITE flag in callers
