Handle descriptor allocation failures by polling for a descriptor.  The
driver will force forward progress when polled.  In the best case this
polling interval will be the time it takes for one dma memcpy
transaction to complete.  In the worst case, channel hang, we will need
to wait 100ms for the cleanup watchdog to fire (ioatdma driver).

Error handling needs to be modified in dma_pin_iovec_pages().
It should return NULL instead of ERR_PTR
(pinned_list is checked for NULL in tcp_recvmsg() to determine
if iovec pages have been successfully pinned down).
In case of error for the first iovec,
local_list->nr_iovecs needs to be initialized.

Al Viro pointed out that dma_memcpy_to_kernel_iovec() really was
unreachable and thus unused.  The code originally was there to support
in-kernel dma needs, but since it remains unused, we'll pull it out.

Provides for pinning user space pages in memory, copying to iovecs,
and copying from sk_buffs including fragmented and chained sk_buffs.
