Add new ->write_buf() method to low level interface. This
allows passig a generic buffer, either containing a memory buffer
or a file descriptor. This allows implementing zero copy writes.
Add fuse_session_receive_buf() and fuse_session_process_buf()
which may be used in event loop implementations to replace
fuse_chan_recv() and fuse_session_process() respectively.
fuse_versionscript included fuse_chan_new in both FUSE_2.4 and
FUSE_2.6. Remove the FUSE_2.4, which is invalid.
Reported by Raymes Khoury, who discovered this with the gold linker
Add a generic buffer interface for use with I/O. Buffer vectors are
supplied and each buffer in the vector may be a memory pointer or a
file descriptor.
The fuse_reply_fd() interface is converted to using buffers.
for mknod, mkdir and create requests by linux kernel version
2.6.31 or later, otherwise the umask is set to zero. Also
introduce a new feature flag: FUSE_CAP_DONT_MASK. If the kernel
supports this feature, then this flag will be set in conn->capable
in the ->init() method. If the filesystem sets this flag in in
conn->want, then the create modes will not be masked.
* Add low level interfaces for lookup cache and attribute
invalidation. This feature is available in linux kernels 2.6.31
or later. Patch by John Muir

reading from the /proc filesystem.
"restricted" ioctls are supported (which are defined with the
_IO(), _IOR(), _IOW() or _IOWR() macros). Unrestricted ioctls
will only be allwed to CUSE (Character Device in Userspace)
servers. Patch by Tejun Heo
