[PATCH 1/8] iov_iter: teach iov_iter_iovec() to deal with ITER_UBUF

[Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>]

Even if we're returning an iovec, we can trivially fill it in with the
details from an ITER_UBUF as well. This enables loops that assume
ITER_IOVEC to deal with ITER_UBUF transparently.

This is done in preparation for automatically importing single segment
iovecs as ITER_UBUF.
