[PATCH 4/4] vfs: RWF_NONBLOCK flag for preadv2

[Milosz Tanski]

Filesystems that generic_file_read_iter will not be allowed to perform
non-blocking reads. This only will read data if it's in the page cache and if
there is no page error (causing a re-read).

Christoph Hellwig wrote the filesystem specify code (cifs, ofs, shm, xfs).
