Dropped.  Do you expect that this will fix everything?

Please cc linux-fsdevel on the aio stuff - I'm seeing some AIO things
over there which aren't cc'ed to lkml or linux-aio.

Please also take a look at Jan's recent
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-fsdevel/msg61738.html and have a
think about how this plays with your patchset.
