we agreed to not add another set of methods but rather consolidate the
existing two sets of aio and vectored methods into one.  So to merge the
core support all users including nfs need to be updated.  the last wip
patchset is posted in the at:

any nfs work should happen ontop of that.

I'm sill the opinion removing the iovec arguments isn't helpfull, but
it's your code and if you think it helps you move forwarg go ahead with
this.
