The existing fadvise/madvise support only supports 32-bit lengths. Add
support for 64-bit lengths, enabled by the application setting sqe->off
rather than sqe->len for the length. If sqe->len is set, then that is
used as the 32-bit length. If sqe->len is zero, then sqe->off is read
for full 64-bit support.
Older kernels will return -EINVAL if 64-bit support isn't available.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
