I still hate having this logic in the block layer.  Even if it is just
a dumb wrapper with the same logic as here I'd much prefer to have
a iov_iter_extract_folios, which can then shift down into a
pin_user_folios_fast and into the MM slowly rather than adding this
logic to the caller.

iov_iter_extract_folios will require allocation of a folio_vec array
which then will be filled after processing the pages[] array. This will
introduce extra allocation cost in the hot path.
