Revert "Merge branch 'odirect'"

This reverts ccf01ef7aa9c6c293a1c64c27331a2ce227916ec commit.

No idea how git managed this one: when I asked it to merge the odirect
topic branch it actually generated a patch which reverted the change.

Reverting the 'merge' will once again reveal Chuck's recent NFS/O_DIRECT
work to the world.
