commit de4eda9
RHEL: The core of this patch was already backported
in 0d33f8e.
This patch is just a backport of the CIFS part of the upstream
patch that was not part of 0d33...
READ/WRITE proved to be actively confusing - the meanings are
"data destination, as used with read(2)" and "data source, as
used with write(2)", but people keep interpreting those as
"we read data from it" and "we write data to it", i.e. exactly
the wrong way.
Call them ITER_DEST and ITER_SOURCE - at least that is harder
to misinterpret...
