Re: [PATCH 2/3] vmsplice: make vmsplice a trivial wrapper for preadv2/pwritev2

Stefan Metzmacher [off-list ref]:
Why is 'int fd' changed to 'unsigned long fd'?
Because preadv2 and pwritev2 take "unsigned long". I want vmsplice
to be as similar as possible to preadv2 and pwritev2.
Should that be its own commit if the change is desired?
Yes, possibly. But this patchset already got to next.
