[PATCH 01/10] fs: don't allow kernel reads and writes without iter ops

From: Christoph Hellwig
Date: Thu Aug 27 2020 - 11:09:48 EST


Don't allow calling ->read or ->write with set_fs as a preparation for
killing off set_fs. All the instances that we use kernel_read/write on
are using the iter ops already.

If a file has both the regular ->read/->write methods and the iter
variants those could have different semantics for messed up enough
drivers. Also fails the kernel access to them in that case.
