    From 2.5.29 to 2.5.30, portions of the sendfile implementation moved from
    mm/filemap.c to fs/read_write.c and dropped the LSM file_permission hook
    calls to revalidate read access to the input file and write access to the
    output file.  I assume that we want to restore these hook calls?  Or is
    file_permission deprecated?
