-Subject: [PATCH] Change __vfs_read_alt to __vfs_read
-
-For kernel from 4.1 to 4.10 there is no call_read_iter used in new_sync_read.
-Why create a new __vfs_read_alt whereas the __vfs_read is exported and seems to do exactly the same.
-
-Remove __vfs_read_alt code and it's dependencies and use the __vfs_read function instead
