Linux 4.1 compat: use read_iter() / write_iter() Linux 3.15 commit torvalds/linux@293bc98 introduced two new methods. The ->read_iter() and ->write_iter() methods were designed to replace the ->aio_read() and ->aio_write() interfaces. Both interfaces were preserved for several kernel releases in order to migrate all existing consumers to the new interfaces. But as of Linux 4.1 the legacy interface has been retired and the ZFS code must be updated to use the new interfaces. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov> Closes #3352

Fix loop device becomes read-only Commit 933ec99 removes read and write from f_op because the vfs layer will select iter_write or aio_write automatically. However, for Linux <= 4.0, loop_set_fd will actually check f_op->write and set read-only if not exists. This patch add them back and use the generic do_sync_{read,write} for aio_{read,write} and new_sync_{read,write} for {read,write}_iter.

Fix incompatibility with Reiser4 patched kernels In ZFSOnLinux, our sources and build system are self contained such that we do not need to make changes to the Linux kernel sources. Reiser4 on the other hand exists solely as a kernel tree patch and opts to make changes to the kernel rather than adapt to it. After Linux 4.1 made a VFS change that replaced new_sync_read with do_sync_read, Reiser4's maintainer decided to modify the kernel VFS to export the old function. This caused our autotools check to misidentify the kernel API as predating Linux 4.1 on kernels that have been patched with Reiser4 support, which breaks our build. Reiser4 really should be patched to stop doing this, but lets modify our check to be more strict to help the affected users of both filesystems. Also, we were not checking the types of arguments and return value of new_sync_read() and new_sync_write() . Lets fix that too.

Retire .write/.read file operations The .write/.read file operations callbacks can be retired since support for .read_iter/.write_iter and .aio_read/.aio_write has been added. The vfs_write()/vfs_read() entry functions will select the correct interface for the kernel. This is desirable because all VFS write/read operations now rely on common code. This change also add the generic write checks to make sure that ulimits are enforced correctly on write.
