The 'read' and 'write' utilities are from a time before the VFS API as os/vfs.h was available. They rely on the (now removed) blocking semantics of the packet-stream interface. The only remaining legitimate use case of the direct interaction with the file-system session without VFS is the back end of gcov, which needs a way to exfiltrate the statistical data using a channel that is independent from the libc or the VFS.
