It was just a quick hack, might very well be too eager to go through
those motions. But pondering this instead of sleeping, we don't need to
copy all of iov_iter in order to restore the state, and we can use the
same advance after restoring. So something like this may be more
palatable. Caveat - again untested, and I haven't tested the performance
impact of this at all.
