Hi all,

The followings are updated version of patches I've posted to
implement IOCHK interface for I/O error handling/detecting.

The abstraction of patches hasn't changed, so please refer
archives if you need, e.g.: http://lwn.net/Articles/139240/

Tony, how do you think about applying my patches to your tree?

Thanks,
H.Seto

[This is 1 of 10 patches, "iochk-01-generic.patch"]

- It defines:
     a pair of function  : iochk_clear and iochk_read
     a function for init : iochk_init
     type of control var : iocookie
   and describe "no-ops" as its "generic" action.

- HAVE_ARCH_IOMAP_CHECK allows us to change whole definition
   of these functions and type from generic one to specific one.
   See next patch (2 of 10).

Changes from previous one for 2.6.11.11:
   - reform default "nop" functions in static inline style.
   - I don't mind using EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL but keep them as
     before. Does anyone worry about this?
