Question
--------
About return value of STEP in iterate_iovec().
We return "csize" in case copy_oldmem_*() fails.
If i'm not mistaken this could lead to an overflow in iterate_iovec():

  len -= (STEP);

Because len could be less than csize in case iovec consists of multiple
segments, one of which is less than csize.

Better to return len ?

({ copy_oldmem_user(base, src + off, len) < 0 ? len : 0; })

> +	)
>  	return csize;
>  }

Another thing is that now we never report any errors in contrast to
the version before. This is OK ?
Maybe set an error flag while iterating and then when the iteration is
done, check the flag and return an error ?

Otherwise, looks good to me.
Tested on LPAR and zVM , all our tela-kernel kdump tests in
tests/dump/kdump work now.
