we just change the calling conventions here; more work to follow.

struct kiocb now is a generic I/O container, so move it to fs.h.
Also do a #include diet for aio.h while we're at it.

The misc subsystem (which is used for /dev/fuse) initializes private_data to
point to the misc device when a driver has registered a custom open file
operation, and initializes it to NULL when a custom open file operation has
*not* been provided.

This subtle quirk is confusing, to the point where kernel code registers
*empty* file open operations to have private_data point to the misc device
structure. And it leads to bugs, where the addition or removal of a custom open
file operation surprisingly changes the initial contents of a file's
private_data structure.

So to simplify things in the misc subsystem, a patch [1] has been proposed to
*always* set the private_data to point to the misc device, instead of only
doing this when a custom open file operation has been registered.

But before this patch can be applied we need to modify drivers that make the
assumption that a misc device file's private_data is initialized to NULL
because they didn't register a custom open file operation, so they don't rely
on this assumption anymore. FUSE uses private_data to store the fuse_conn and
errors out if this is not initialized to NULL at mount time.

Hence, we now set a file's private_data to NULL explicitly, to be independent
of whatever value the misc subsystem initializes it to by default.

Regular pipe buffers' ->steal method (generic_pipe_buf_steal()) doesn't set
PG_uptodate.

Don't warn on this condition, just set the uptodate flag.

Theoretically we need to order setting of various fields in fc with
fc->initialized.

No known bug reports related to this yet.

Analysis from Marc:

 "Commit 7078187a795f ("fuse: introduce fuse_simple_request() helper")
  from the above pull request triggers some EIO errors for me in some tests
  that rely on fuse

  Looking at the code changes and a bit of debugging info I think there's a
  general problem here that fuse_get_req checks and possibly waits for
  fc->initialized, and this was always called first.  But this commit
  changes the ordering and in many places fc->minor is now possibly used
  before fuse_get_req, and we can't be sure that fc has been initialized.
  In my case fuse_lookup_init sets req->out.args[0].size to the wrong size
  because fc->minor at that point is still 0, leading to the EIO error."

Fix by moving the compat adjustments into fuse_simple_request() to after
fuse_get_req().

This is also more readable than the original, since now compatibility is
handled in a single function instead of cluttering each operation.

Fixes: 7078187a795f ("fuse: introduce fuse_simple_request() helper")

The following pattern is repeated many times:

	req = fuse_get_req_nopages(fc);
	/* Initialize req->(in|out).args */
	fuse_request_send(fc, req);
	err = req->out.h.error;
	fuse_put_request(req);

Create a new replacement helper:

	/* Initialize args */
	err = fuse_simple_request(fc, &args);

In addition to reducing the code size, this will ease moving from the
complex arg-based to a simpler page-based I/O on the fuse device.
