Re: [PATCH] Add support for usbfs zerocopy.

[Christoph Hellwig]

This is a completely broken usage of the mmap interface.  if you use
mmap on a device file you must use the actual mmap for the data
transfer.

Our interface for zero copy reads/writes is O_DIRECT, and that requires
not special memory allocation, just proper alignment.
