We're using direct io implementation based on buffer heads. This patch switches to the new iomap infrastructure. Switch from __blockdev_direct_IO() to iomap_dio_rw(). Rename btrfs_get_blocks_direct() to btrfs_dio_iomap_begin() and use it as iomap_begin() for iomap direct I/O functions. This function allocates and locks all the blocks required for the I/O. btrfs_submit_direct() is used as the submit_io() hook for direct I/O ops. Since we need direct I/O reads to go through iomap_dio_rw(), we change file_operations.read_iter() to a btrfs_file_read_iter() which calls btrfs_direct_IO() for direct reads and falls back to generic_file_buffered_read() for incomplete reads and buffered reads. We don't need address_space.direct_IO() anymore: set it to noop. Similarly, we don't need flags used in __blockdev_direct_IO(). iomap is capable of direct I/O reads from a hole, so we don't need to return -ENOENT. Btrfs direct I/O is now done under i_rwsem, shared in case of reads and exclusive in case of writes. This guards against simultaneous truncates. Use iomap->iomap_end() to check for failed or incomplete direct I/O: - for writes, call __endio_write_update_ordered() - for reads, unlock extents btrfs_dio_data is now hooked in iomap->private and not current->journal_info. It carries the reservation variable and the amount of data submitted, so we can calculate the amount of data to call __endio_write_update_ordered in case of an error. This patch removes last use of struct buffer_head from btrfs.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
