[Devel] [PATCH rh7] fuse: allow kernel to access "direct_io" files

From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi at suse.cz>

Allow the kernel read and write on "direct_io" files.  This is
necessary for nfs export and execute support.

The implementation is simple: if an access from the kernel is
detected, don't perform get_user_pages(), just use the kernel address
provided by the requester to copy from/to the userspace filesystem.
