Hey Linus,
/* Summary */
This contains three fixes:
* Get rid of copy_mc flag in iov_iter which really only makes sense for
the core dumping code so move it out of the generic iov iter code and
make it coredump's problem. See the detailed commit description.
* Revert fs/aio: Make io_cancel() generate completions again
The initial fix here was predicated on the assumption that calling
ki_cancel() didn't complete aio requests. However, that turned out to
be wrong since the two drivers that actually make use of this set
a cancellation function that performs the cancellation correctly.
So revert this change.
* Ensure that the test for IOCB_AIO_RW always happens before the read
from ki_ctx.
