linux-next: build failure after merge of the aio tree

Hi Benjamin,

After merging the aio tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

fs/aio.c: In function 'aio_kernel_init_rw':
fs/aio.c:1359:6: error: 'struct kiocb' has no member named 'ki_left'
iocb->ki_left = nr;
^
fs/aio.c: In function 'aio_kernel_submit':
fs/aio.c:1394:6: error: 'struct kiocb' has no member named 'ki_opcode'
iocb->ki_opcode = op;
^
fs/aio.c:1395:6: error: 'struct kiocb' has no member named 'ki_buf'
iocb->ki_buf = (char __user *)(unsigned long)ptr;
^
fs/aio.c:1398:2: error: too few arguments to function 'aio_run_iocb'
ret = aio_run_iocb(iocb, 0);
^
fs/aio.c:1217:16: note: declared here
static ssize_t aio_run_iocb(struct kiocb *req, unsigned opcode,
^

Caused by commit af9fa2024c38 ("aio: add aio_kernel_() interface") from
the aio-direct tree interacting with commit 8bc92afcf7f5 ("aio: Kill
unneeded kiocb members") from the aio tree.

I applied the following merge fix patch (and I can carry it as necessary
- thanks, Dave, for the hint patches):
