Subject: 32-bit bug in iovec iterator changes

Dave Chinner called it.
Al, I'm seeing a regression which shows up using a 32-bit x86 kernel.
The symptoms of the bug is when run under KVM, with a 5 GB /dev/vdc
virtual block device, a read at offset 2 ** 30 fails with a short
read:
# dd if=/dev/vdc of=/dev/null bs=4k skip=262144 count=1
0+0 records in
0+0 records out
0 bytes (0 B) copied, 0.0164144 s, 0.0 kB/s
On a 3.15 kernel, this command works:
# dd if=/dev/vdc of=/dev/null bs=4k skip=262144 count=1
1+0 records in
1+0 records out
4096 bytes (4.1 kB) copied, 0.0457984 s, 89.4 kB/s
I tried bisecting it, but unfortunately the iovec iterator changes are
not cleanly bisectable, since copy_page_from_iter() gets introduced
some two dozen patches before it gets defined. :-(
However, the bisect leads quite squarely to to the iovec iterator
patches.
Al, I'd appreciate it if you could take a look?
Thanks!!

new methods: ->read_iter() and ->write_iter()
Beginning to introduce those. Just the callers for now, and it's
clumsier than it'll eventually become; once we finish converting
aio_read and aio_write instances, the things will get nicer.
For now, these guys are in parallel to ->aio_read() and ->aio_write();
they take iocb and iov_iter, with everything in iov_iter already
validated. File offset is passed in iocb->ki_pos, iov/nr_segs -
in iov_iter.
Main concerns in that series are stack footprint and ability to
split the damn thing cleanly.

replace checking for ->read/->aio_read presence with check in ->f_mode
Since we are about to introduce new methods (read_iter/write_iter), the
tests in a bunch of places would have to grow inconveniently. Check
once (at open() time) and store results in ->f_mode as FMODE_CAN_READ
and FMODE_CAN_WRITE resp. It might end up being a temporary measure -
once everything switches from ->aio_{read,write} to ->{read,write}_iter
it might make sense to return to open-coded checks. We'll see...

iov_iter_get_pages(iter, pages, maxsize, &start) grabs references pinning
the pages of up to maxsize of (contiguous) data from iter. Returns the
amount of memory grabbed or -error. In case of success, the requested
area begins at offset start in pages[0] and runs through pages[1], etc.
Less than requested amount might be returned - either because the contiguous
area in the beginning of iterator is smaller than requested, or because
the kernel failed to pin that many pages.

account for kvec vs. iovec in there, by the same kludge NFS ->direct_IO()
uses.

new helper: generic_file_read_iter()
iov_iter-using variant of generic_file_aio_read(). Some callers
converted. Note that it's still not quite there for use as ->read_iter() -
we depend on having zero iter->iov_offset in O_DIRECT case. Fortunately,
that's true for all converted callers (and for generic_file_aio_read() itself).

new primitive: iov_iter_alignment()
returns the value aligned as badly as the worst remaining segment
in iov_iter is. Use instead of open-coded equivalents.

give ->direct_IO() a copy of iov_iter
the thing is, we want to advance what's given to ->direct_IO() as we
are forming the request; however, the callers care about the amount
of data actually transferred, not the amount we tried to transfer.
It's more convenient to allow ->direct_IO() instances do use
iov_iter_advance() on the copy of iov_iter, leaving the actual
advancing of the original to caller.

kill generic_segment_checks()
