Re: [PATCH 3/4] VFS: factor out three helpers for FIBMAP/FIONBIO/FIOASYNC file ioctls

BTW, what's the origin of this oddity in fs/ioctl.c:

#ifdef __sparc__
/* SunOS compatibility item. */
if (O_NONBLOCK != O_NDELAY)
flag |= O_NDELAY;
#endif

It seems rather odd to have architecture-specific code in the VFS, no?
