Subject: [GIT PULL] vfs iov updates

Hey Linus,

/* Summary */
This contains a minor cleanup. The patches drop an unused argument from
import_single_range() allowing to replace import_single_range() with
import_ubuf() and dropping import_single_range() completely.

/* Testing */
clang: Debian clang version 16.0.6 (19)
gcc: (Debian 13.2.0-7) 13.2.0

All patches are based on v6.7-rc1 and have been sitting in linux-next.
No build failures or warnings were observed.

/* Conflicts */
At the time of creating this PR no merge conflicts were reported from
linux-next and no merge conflicts showed up doing a test-merge with
current mainline.
