/*
 * We perform all file I/O using a local, intermediate buffer.  While in theory
 * it would be possible to perform direct DMA from/to the user process, this
 * does not work in practice: on short reads, VirtualBox copies back the entire
 * provided buffer rather than only the part actually filled, resulting in the
 * unused part of the buffer being clobbered.  Marking the buffer as bi-
 * directional would solve this, except it would also eliminate all the
 * zero-copy benefits for reads; in addition, it is prevented by the protection
 * set on the given grant.
