Subject: [git pull] iov_iter primitives

	More iov_iter work - missing counterpart of iov_iter_init() for
bvec-backed ones and vfs_read_iter()/vfs_write_iter() - wrappers for
sync calls of ->read_iter()/->write_iter().
Please, pull from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs.git iov_iter

Shortlog:
Al Viro (1):
      new helper: iov_iter_bvec()

Christoph Hellwig (1):
      fs: add vfs_iter_{read,write} helpers
