[PATCH 05/13] fs: make do_loop_readv_writev() non-static

From: Benjamin LaHaise
Date: Mon Jan 11 2016 - 17:07:17 EST


The threaded aio helper code needs to be able to call
do_loop_readv_writev() to perform i/o to file_operations that do not have
read_iter or write_iter methods. Make the prototype for
do_loop_readv_writev() non-static and move it into fs/internal.h
