INNODB: "DATA DIRECTORY" OPTION OF CREATE TABLE FAILS WITH PWRITE() OS
ERROR 22
Fix for version mysql-5.6
PROBLEM
========
For version mysql-5.6.27 onwards InnoDB fails to create a table
with explicit 'data directory' option when Innodb_flush_method
is set to O_DIRECT.While creating link file we get a  a pwrite
error 22 due to the alignment restrictions imposed by O_DIRECT
flag  which is being set for the link file created.

FIX
===
Fixed the above issue by making use of file IO functions while
creating the link file that wouldn't let the O_DIRECT flag
restrictions arise.
