Patch ID: PHKL_43106

* 2800073 (Tracking ID: 1903999)

SYMPTOM:
On a system with Oracle Disk Manager (ODM) installed, when a write
request is served, the system can panic with the following stack trace:
as_nubcopy+0x601
lbcopy+0x200
privlbcopy+0x50
volkio_to_kio_copy+0x38
volsio_unstabilize+0x19
vol_mv_wrback_done+0xdc
voliod_iohandle+0xb0
voliod_loop+0x650
kthread_daemon_startup+0x40

DESCRIPTION:
The flags passed by ODM to the Virtual Memory Manager (VMM) layer
are incorrect. Therefore, when a read request is received by VMM from the File
System (FS) or ODM, VMM tries to copy the Kernel Input Output (KIO) buffer,
created by VMM, to the user buffer. When VMM tries to write to the user
buffer, which receives information from the FS or the ODM layer, the FS or the
ODM layer that have the READ_ONLY permission cannot be written to VMM. This
results in the panic.

RESOLUTION:
The code is modified such that the flags passed by ODM to the VMM
layer are correct.
