This may break anyone using io_uring with those bizarre drivers that have
entirely different readv semantics from normal read. I think we can safely say
no one's using io_uring for such interfaces, so probably a moot point. If you
wanted to be extra cautious though, you may want to skip this transformation if
the file->f_op implements both .read+read_iter and .write+.write_iter.
