Linus Torvalds b1b11d0063 Merge tag 'cleanup-kernel_read_write' of git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc ...

Pull in-kernel read and write op cleanups from Christoph Hellwig:
 "Cleanup in-kernel read and write operations

  Reshuffle the (__)kernel_read and (__)kernel_write helpers, and ensure
  all users of in-kernel file I/O use them if they don't use iov_iter
  based methods already.

  The new WARN_ONs in combination with syzcaller already found a missing
  input validation in 9p. The fix should be on your way through the
  maintainer ASAP".

[ This is prep-work for the real changes coming 5.9 ]
