Most of the users immediately follow successful iov_iter_get_pages()
with advancing by the amount it had returned.

Provide inline wrappers doing that, convert trivial open-coded
uses of those.

BTW, iov_iter_get_pages() never returns more than it had been asked
to; such checks in cifs ought to be removed someday...

<title>ITER_PIPE: cache the type of last buffer</title>

We often need to find whether the last buffer is anon or not, and
currently it's rather clumsy:
	check if -&gt;iov_offset is non-zero (i.e. that pipe is not empty)
	if so, get the corresponding pipe_buffer and check its -&gt;ops
	if it's &amp;default_pipe_buf_ops, we have an anon buffer.

Let's replace the use of -&gt;iov_offset (which is nowhere near similar to
its role for other flavours) with signed field (-&gt;last_offset), with
the following rules:
	empty, no buffers occupied:		0
	anon, with bytes up to N-1 filled:	N
	zero-copy, with bytes up to N-1 filled:	-N

That way abs(i-&gt;last_offset) is equal to what used to be in i-&gt;iov_offset
and empty vs. anon vs. zero-copy can be distinguished by the sign of
i-&gt;last_offset.

	Checks for "should we extend the last buffer or should we start
a new one?" become easier to follow that way.

	Note that most of the operations can only be done in a sane
state - i.e. when the pipe has nothing past the current position of
iterator.  About the only thing that could be done outside of that
state is iov_iter_advance(), which transitions to the sane state by
truncating the pipe.  There are only two cases where we leave the
sane state:
	1) iov_iter_get_pages()/iov_iter_get_pages_alloc().  Will be
dealt with later, when we make get_pages advancing - the callers are
actually happier that way.
	2) iov_iter copied, then something is put into the copy.  Since
they share the underlying pipe, the original gets behind.  When we
decide that we are done with the copy (original is not usable until then)
we advance the original.  direct_io used to be done that way; nowadays
it operates on the original and we do iov_iter_revert() to discard
the excessive data.  At the moment there's nothing in the kernel that
could do that to ITER_PIPE iterators, so this reason for insane state
is theoretical right now.

<title>new iov_iter flavour - ITER_UBUF</title>

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 -&gt;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.

The existing iov_iter_alignment() function returns the logical OR of
address and length. For cases where address and length need to be
considered separately, introduce a helper function that a caller can
specificy length and address masks that indicate if the iov is
unaligned.

TLS recvmsg() passes user pages as destination for decrypt.
The decrypt operation is repeated record by record, each
record being 16kB, max. TLS allocates an sg_table and uses
iov_iter_get_pages() to populate it with enough pages to
fit the decrypted record.

Even though we decrypt a single message at a time we size
the sg_table based on the entire length of the iovec.
This leads to unnecessarily large allocations, risking
triggering OOM conditions.

Use iov_iter_truncate() / iov_iter_reexpand() to construct
a "capped" version of iov_iter_npages(). Alternatively we
could parametrize iov_iter_npages() to take the size as
arg instead of using i-&gt;count, or do something else..

Pull dax and libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
 "The bulk of this is a rework of the dax_operations API after
  discovering the obstacles it posed to the work-in-progress DAX+reflink
  support for XFS and other copy-on-write filesystem mechanics.

  Primarily the need to plumb a block_device through the API to handle
  partition offsets was a sticking point and Christoph untangled that
  dependency in addition to other cleanups to make landing the
  DAX+reflink support easier.

  The DAX_PMEM_COMPAT option has been around for 4 years and not only
  are distributions shipping userspace that understand the current
  configuration API, but some are not even bothering to turn this option
  on anymore, so it seems a good time to remove it per the deprecation
  schedule. Recall that this was added after the device-dax subsystem
  moved from /sys/class/dax to /sys/bus/dax for its sysfs organization.
  All recent functionality depends on /sys/bus/dax.

  Some other miscellaneous cleanups and reflink prep patches are
  included as well.

  Summary:

   - Simplify the dax_operations API:

      - Eliminate bdev_dax_pgoff() in favor of the filesystem
        maintaining and applying a partition offset to all its DAX iomap
        operations.

      - Remove wrappers and device-mapper stacked callbacks for
        -&gt;copy_from_iter() and -&gt;copy_to_iter() in favor of moving
        block_device relative offset responsibility to the
        dax_direct_access() caller.

      - Remove the need for an @bdev in filesystem-DAX infrastructure

      - Remove unused uio helpers copy_from_iter_flushcache() and
        copy_mc_to_iter() as only the non-check_copy_size() versions are
        used for DAX.

   - Prepare XFS for the pending (next merge window) DAX+reflink support

   - Remove deprecated DEV_DAX_PMEM_COMPAT support

   - Cleanup a straggling misuse of the GUID api"

  DAX+reflink support easier.

  The DAX_PMEM_COMPAT option has been around for 4 years and not only
  are distributions shipping userspace that understand the current
  configuration API, but some are not even bothering to turn this option
  on anymore, so it seems a good time to remove it per the deprecation
  schedule. Recall that this was added after the device-dax subsystem
  moved from /sys/class/dax to /sys/bus/dax for its sysfs organization.
  All recent functionality depends on /sys/bus/dax.

  Some other miscellaneous cleanups and reflink prep patches are
  included as well.

  Summary:

   - Simplify the dax_operations API:

      - Eliminate bdev_dax_pgoff() in favor of the filesystem
        maintaining and applying a partition offset to all its DAX iomap
        operations.

      - Remove wrappers and device-mapper stacked callbacks for
        -&gt;copy_from_iter() and -&gt;copy_to_iter() in favor of moving
        block_device relative offset responsibility to the
        dax_direct_access() caller.

      - Remove the need for an @bdev in filesystem-DAX infrastructure

      - Remove unused uio helpers copy_from_iter_flushcache() and
        copy_mc_to_iter() as only the non-check_copy_size() versions are
        used for DAX.

   - Prepare XFS for the pending (next merge window) DAX+reflink support

   - Remove deprecated DEV_DAX_PMEM_COMPAT support

   - Cleanup a straggling misuse of the GUID api"

This wrapper around copy_page_to_iter() works because copy_page_to_iter()
handles compound pages correctly.
