Alexei, coding an INFDS does not inhibit blocking.  The INFDS is updated
only after each block is read or written.  In fact, explicitly requesting
feedback (POST operation) can improve performance somewhat, since a POST
operation will cause the feedback areas in the INFDS to be updated only
on a POST, not after each I/O.
