Subject: lib/scatterlist: factor out sg_miter_get_next_page() from sg_miter_next()

This patchset introduces sg_pcopy_from_buffer() and sg_pcopy_to_buffer(),
which copy data between a linear buffer and an SG list.

The only difference between sg_pcopy_{from,to}_buffer() and
sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer() is an additional argument that specifies the
number of bytes to skip the SG list before copying.

The main reason for introducing these functions is to fix a problem in
scsi_debug module.  And there is a local function in crypto/talitos
module, which can be replaced by sg_pcopy_to_buffer().


This patch:

sg_miter_get_next_page() is used to proceed page iterator to the next page
if necessary, and will be used to implement the variants of
sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer() later.
