This is long overdue, and is part of cleaning up how we allocate kernel
sockets that don't reference count struct net.

All places outside of core VFS that checked -&gt;read and -&gt;write for being NULL or

Pull backing device changes from Jens Axboe:
 "This contains a cleanup of how the backing device is handled, in
  preparation for a rework of the life time rules.  In this part, the
  most important change is to split the unrelated nommu mmap flags from
  it, but also removing a backing_dev_info pointer from the
  address_space (and inode), and a cleanup of other various minor bits.

  Christoph did all the work here, I just fixed an oops with pages that
  have a swap backing.  Arnd fixed a missing export, and Oleg killed the
  lustre backing_dev_info from staging.  Last patch was from Al,
  unexporting parts that are now no longer needed outside"

* 'for-3.20/bdi' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
  Make super_blocks and sb_lock static
  mtd: export new mtd_mmap_capabilities
  fs: make inode_to_bdi() handle NULL inode
  staging/lustre/llite: get rid of backing_dev_info
  fs: remove default_backing_dev_info
  fs: don't reassign dirty inodes to default_backing_dev_info
  nfs: don't call bdi_unregister
  ceph: remove call to bdi_unregister
  fs: remove mapping-&gt;backing_dev_info
  fs: export inode_to_bdi and use it in favor of mapping-&gt;backing_dev_info
  nilfs2: set up s_bdi like the generic mount_bdev code
  block_dev: get bdev inode bdi directly from the block device
  block_dev: only write bdev inode on close
  fs: introduce f_op-&gt;mmap_capabilities for nommu mmap support
  fs: kill BDI_CAP_SWAP_BACKED
  fs: deduplicate noop_backing_dev_info

rxrpc_send_data() uses iov_iter primitives, it'll handle ITER_KVEC just

Since "BDI: Provide backing device capability information [try #3]" the
backing_dev_info structure also provides flags for the kind of mmap
operation available in a nommu environment, which is entirely unrelated
to it's original purpose.

Introduce a new nommu-only file operation to provide this information to
the nommu mmap code instead.  Splitting this from the backing_dev_info
structure allows to remove lots of backing_dev_info instance that aren't
otherwise needed, and entirely gets rid of the concept of providing a
backing_dev_info for a character device.  It also removes the need for
the mtd_inodefs filesystem.
