 static inline struct page *bvec_page(const struct bio_vec *bvec)
 {
-       return bvec->bv_page;
+       return pfn_to_page(bvec->bv_pfn.pfn);
 }

(yes, more work to be done here to make copy_to_iter work to a bvec that
is actually targetting a page-less address, but these are RFC patches
showing the direction we're heading in while keeping current code working)
