    block: add bio_iov_iter_get_pages() · 38161995
    Kent Overstreet 提交于
    This is a helper that pins down a range from an iov_iter and adds it to
    a bio without requiring a separate memory allocation for the page array.
    It will be used for upcoming direct I/O implementations for block devices
    and iomap based file systems.

    [hch: ported to the iov_iter interface, renamed and added comments.
          All blame should be directed to me and all fame should go to Kent
          after this!]
