Subject: [PATCH] splice: cleanup the SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK handling
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.17-rc3~81^2~3
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c4f895cbe1e95aab633207fb19c650b7c984c01a;p=linux-2.6

[PATCH] splice: cleanup the SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK handling

- generic_file_splice_read() more readable and correct
- Don't bail on page allocation with NONBLOCK set, just don't allow
  direct blocking on IO (eg lock_page).
