Not sure if speculations about the future belong into commit messages, but while it may turn out that a bypass is required in the end (I hope it doesn't), the part about AIOCBs is wrong if you really consistently use coroutines all the way down from the device to the block driver. I think Peter picked up all of my patches to actually handle requests this way (i.e. virtio-blk already creates the coroutine). Kevin
