Subject: [PATCH v2 15/17] [atm] switch vcc_sendmsg() to copy_from_iter()

From: Al Viro <viro@...iv.linux.org.uk>

... and make it handle multi-segment iovecs - deals with that
"fix this later" issue for free.  A bit of shame, really - it
had been there since 2.3.15pre3 when the whole thing went into the
tree, practically a historical artefact by now...
