The two problems are iovec, which contains a __user address, and that
gets exposed via the API, and vring, which *doesn't* use __user
addresses.

This is ugly, but works:

vringh: use vringh_kiov for _kern functions, and internally.

This makes user of vringh perfectly __user-clean, and removes an
internal cast.

This only works because of -fno-strict-aliasing!
