Subject: [PATCH 0/4] Replace skb_copy_datagram_const_iovec with iterator
 version

Hi Dave:

This patch series adds the helper skb_copy_datagram_iter, which
is meant to replace both skb_copy_datagram_iovec and its evil
twin skb_copy_datagram_const_iovec.

It then converts tun and macvtap over to the new helper and finally
removes skb_copy_datagram_const_iovec which is only used by tun
and macvtap.

The copy_to_iter return value issue pointed out by Al has now been
fixed.

Cheers,
