In io_read_prep() or io_write_prep(), io_req_map_rw() takes struct io_async_rw's fast_iov as argument to call io_import_iovec(), and if io_import_iovec() uses struct io_async_rw's fast_iov as valid iovec array, later indeed io_req_map_rw() does not need to do the memcpy operation, because they are same pointers.
