I am a little confused about the name of this new function. In its
conterpart, copy_page_from_iter_atomic(), kmap_atomic()/kunmpa_atomic()
are used. With them, if CONFIG_HIGHMEM=n, it's like below:

static inline void *kmap_atomic(struct page *page)
{
        if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT))
                migrate_disable();
        else
                preempt_disable();
        pagefault_disable();
        return page_address(page);
}

But kmap_local_page() is only having page_address(), the code block
between kmap_local_page() and kunmap_local() is also atomic, it's a
little messy in my mind.

static inline void *kmap_local_page(struct page *page)
{
        return page_address(page);
}
