/*
 * This code generally works in units of "dio_blocks".  A dio_block is
 * somewhere between the hard sector size and the filesystem block size.  it
 * is determined on a per-invocation basis.   When talking to the filesystem
 * we need to convert dio_blocks to fs_blocks by scaling the dio_block quantity
 * down by dio->blkfactor.  Similarly, fs-blocksize quantities are converted
 * to bio_block quantities by shifting left by blkfactor.
 *
 * If blkfactor is zero then the user's request was aligned to the filesystem's
 * blocksize.
 *
 * lock_type is DIO_LOCKING for regular files on direct-IO-naive filesystems.
 * This determines whether we need to do the fancy locking which prevents
 * direct-IO from being able to read uninitialised disk blocks.  If its zero
 * (blockdev) this locking is not done, and if it is DIO_OWN_LOCKING i_mutex is
 * not held for the entire direct write (taken briefly, initially, during a
 * direct read though, but its never held for the duration of a direct-IO).
