Pavel Begunkov e5f71d60ff /dev/mem: nowait zero/null ops
Make read_iter_zero() to honor IOCB_NOWAIT, so /dev/zero can be
advertised as FMODE_NOWAIT. It's useful for io_uring, which needs it to
apply certain optimisations when doing I/O against the device.

Set FMODE_NOWAIT for /dev/null as well, it never waits and therefore
trivially meets the criteria.

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.
