[PATCH 4/7] O_NONBLOCK flag for readv2/preadv2

From: Milosz Tanski
Date: Mon Sep 15 2014 - 16:21:27 EST


Filesystems that generic_file_read_iter will not be allowed to perform
non-blocking reads. This only will read data if it's in the page cache and if
there is no page error (causing a re-read).
