[PATCH 3.14 105/122] callers of iov_copy_from_user_atomic() dont need pagecache_disable()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 9e8c2af96e0d2d5fe298dd796fb6bc16e888a48d upstream.

... it does that itself (via kmap_atomic())
