[PATCH 04/11] mm: support async buffered reads in generic_file_buffered_read()

[Jens Axboe]

Use the async page locking infrastructure, if IOCB_WAITQ is set in the
passed in iocb. The caller must expect an -EIOCBQUEUED return value,
which means that IO is started but not done yet. This is similar to how
O_DIRECT signals the same operation. Once the callback is received by
the caller for IO completion, the caller must retry the operation.
