Add a function, iov_iter_extract_pages(), to extract a list of pages from
an iterator. The pages may be returned with a pin added or nothing,
depending on the type of iterator.
Add a second function, iov_iter_extract_will_pin(), to determine how the
cleanup should be done.
There are two cases:
(1) ITER_IOVEC or ITER_UBUF iterator.
Extracted pages will have pins (FOLL_PIN) obtained on them so that a
concurrent fork() will forcibly copy the page so that DMA is done
to/from the parent's buffer and is unavailable to/unaffected by the
child process.
iov_iter_extract_will_pin() will return true for this case. The
caller should use something like unpin_user_page() to dispose of the
page.
(2) Any other sort of iterator.
No refs or pins are obtained on the page, the assumption is made that
the caller will manage page retention.
iov_iter_extract_will_pin() will return false. The pages don't need
additional disposal.

Notes:
ver #10)
- Fix use of i->kvec in iov_iter_extract_bvec_pages() to be i->bvec.
ver #9)
- Rename iov_iter_extract_mode() to iov_iter_extract_will_pin() and make
it return true/false not FOLL_PIN/0 as FOLL_PIN is going to be made
private to mm/.
- Change extract_flags to extraction_flags.
ver #8)
- It seems that all DIO is supposed to be done under FOLL_PIN now, and not
FOLL_GET, so switch to only using pin_user_pages() for user-backed
iters.
- Wrap an argument in brackets in the iov_iter_extract_mode() macro.
- Drop the extract_flags argument to iov_iter_extract_mode() for now
[hch].
ver #7)
- Switch to passing in iter-specific flags rather than FOLL_* flags.
- Drop the direction flags for now.
- Use ITER_ALLOW_P2PDMA to request FOLL_PCI_P2PDMA.
- Disallow use of ITER_ALLOW_P2PDMA with non-user-backed iter.
- Add support for extraction from KVEC-type iters.
- Use iov_iter_advance() rather than open-coding it.
- Make BVEC- and KVEC-type skip over initial empty vectors.
ver #6)
- Add back the function to indicate the cleanup mode.
- Drop the cleanup_mode return arg to iov_iter_extract_pages().
- Pass FOLL_SOURCE/DEST_BUF in gup_flags. Check this against the iter
data_source.
ver #4)
- Use ITER_SOURCE/DEST instead of WRITE/READ.
- Allow additional FOLL_* flags, such as FOLL_PCI_P2PDMA to be passed in.
ver #3)
- Switch to using EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL to prevent indirect 3rd-party access
to get/pin_user_pages_fast()[1].
