Re: [PATCHSET RFC v2 jane 0/5] vfs: enable userspace to reset damaged file storage

I withdraw the patchset due to spiralling complexity and the need to get
back to the other hojillion things.

Dave now suggests creating a RWF_CLEAR_POISON/IOCB_CLEAR_POISON flag to
clear poison ahead of userspace using a regular write to reset the
storage.  Honestly I only though of zero writes because I though that
would lead to the least amount of back and forth, which was clearly
wrong.

Jane, could you take over and try that?
