Subject[PATCH v21 6/6] block: convert bio_map_user_iov to use iov_iter_extract_pages
Date
This will pin pages or leave them unaltered rather than getting a ref on
them as appropriate to the iterator.

The pages need to be pinned for DIO rather than having refs taken on them
to prevent VM copy-on-write from malfunctioning during a concurrent fork()
(the result of the I/O could otherwise end up being visible to/affected by
the child process).

Notes:
ver #10)
- Drop bio_set_cleanup_mode(), open coding it instead.

ver #8)
- Split the patch up a bit [hch].
- We should only be using pinned/non-pinned pages and not ref'd pages,
so adjust the comments appropriately.

ver #7)
- Don't treat BIO_PAGE_REFFED/PINNED as being the same as FOLL_GET/PIN.

ver #5)
- Transcribe the FOLL_* flags returned by iov_iter_extract_pages() to
BIO_* flags and got rid of bi_cleanup_mode.
- Replaced BIO_NO_PAGE_REF to BIO_PAGE_REFFED in the preceding patch.
