new iov_iter flavour - ITER_UBUF
Equivalent of single-segment iovec. Initialized by iov_iter_ubuf(),
checked for by iter_is_ubuf(), otherwise behaves like ITER_IOVEC
ones.
We are going to expose the things like ->write_iter() et.al. to those
in subsequent commits.
New predicate (user_backed_iter()) that is true for ITER_IOVEC and
ITER_UBUF; places like direct-IO handling should use that for
checking that pages we modify after getting them from iov_iter_get_pages()
would need to be dirtied.
DO NOT assume that replacing iter_is_iovec() with user_backed_iter()
will solve all problems - there's code that uses iter_is_iovec() to
decide how to poke around in iov_iter guts and for that the predicate
replacement obviously won't suffice.
