Jens Axboe 12aceb89b0 eventfd: convert to f_op->read_iter()
eventfd is using ->read() as it's file_operations read handler, but
this prevents passing in information about whether a given IO operation
is blocking or not. We can only use the file flags for that. To support
async (-EAGAIN/poll based) retries for io_uring, we need ->read_iter()
support. Convert eventfd to using ->read_iter().

With ->read_iter(), we can support IOCB_NOWAIT. Ensure the fd setup
is done such that we set file->f_mode with FMODE_NOWAIT.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
