From: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn@suse.com>

RWF_NOWAIT informs kernel to bail out if an AIO request will block
for reasons such as file allocations, or a writeback triggered,
or would block while allocating requests while performing
direct I/O.

RWF_NOWAIT is translated to IOCB_NOWAIT for iocb->ki_flags.

The check for -EOPNOTSUPP is placed in generic_file_write_iter(). This
is called by most filesystems, either through fsops.write_iter() or through
the function defined by write_iter(). If not, we perform the check defined
by .write_iter() which is called for direct IO specifically.

Filesystems xfs, btrfs and ext4 would be supported in the following patches.

Umm...  What about ->write_iter() instances outside of fs/*?  Even in fs/*,
consider e.g.
int cifs_get_writer(struct cifsInodeInfo *cinode)
{
        int rc;

start:
        rc = wait_on_bit(&cinode->flags, CIFS_INODE_PENDING_OPLOCK_BREAK,
                         TASK_KILLABLE);

and cifs_file_write_iter() calling it before going to generic_file_write_iter().
Ditto for cifs_struct_writev()...  coda_file_write_iter() does inode_lock()
before calling vfs_iter_write().  ext2_dax_write_iter(): inode_lock().
f2fs_file_write_iter(): ditto.  fuse_file_write_iter(): ditto in case when
->writeback_cache is false.  gfs2 is O_APPEND case: almost certainly blocks.
ncp_file_write_iter(): blocks (mutex_lock(&NCP_FINFO(inode)->open_mutex)
in ncp_make_open(), not to mention anything else). ntfs_file_write_iter():
inode_lock().  orangefs_file_write_iter(): ditto.  ubifs_write_iter():
may block in update_mctime().  udf_file_write_iter(): inode_lock().

Lustre sure as hell does block before it gets anywhere near mm/filemap.c.

And that - just from looking at regular files.  Then we have sockets and
pipes, not to mention weird stuff like fs/fuse/cuse.c, etc.
