Re: [PATCH 07/11] fuse: add per-page descriptor <offset, length>to fuse_req (v2)

Hi,

The ability to save page pointers along with lengths and offsets in fuse_req
will be useful to cover several iovec-s with a single fuse_req.

Per-request page_offset is removed because anybody who need it can use
req->page_descs[0].offset instead.

Changed in v2:
- replaced structure page_desc with fuse_page_desc

Makes me wonder: why aren't we zeroing out the page array too?

Good catch, thnx! This is a legacy since time when I attempted to use <page, length, offset> as fuse_page_desc. Now, when we have both page_descs[] and pages[], it's natural to zero both.

You allocate them together, you can free them together. Just add a
BUG_ON() if you feel paranoid.

OK.

Thanks,
Maxim
