*UGH* You are introducing file_operations with both ->read() and ->read_iter(); worse, in some cases they are not equivalent. Sure, ->read() takes precedence right now, but... why not a separate file_operations for ->read_iter-capable files? I really hate the fallbacks of that sort - they tend to be brittle as hell. And while we are at it, I'm not sure that your iter_read() has good cause to be non-static.
