One of the goals is to reduce the overhead of using ->read_iter()
and ->write_iter() instead of ->read()/->write(); new_sync_{read,write}()
has a surprising amount of overhead, in particular inside iocb_flags().
That's why the beginning of the series is in this pile; it's not directly
iov_iter-related, but it's a part of the same work...

first_iovec_segment(): just return address
iov_iter: massage calling conventions for first_{iovec,bvec}_segment()
iov_iter: first_{iovec,bvec}_segment() - simplify a bit
iov_iter: lift dealing with maxpages out of first_{iovec,bvec}_segment()
iov_iter_get_pages{,_alloc}(): cap the maxsize with MAX_RW_COUNT
iov_iter_bvec_advance(): don't bother with bvec_iter
copy_page_{to,from}_iter(): switch iovec variants to generic
keep iocb_flags() result cached in struct file
iocb: delay evaluation of IS_SYNC(...) until we want to check IOCB_DSYNC
struct file: use anonymous union member for rcuhead and llist
btrfs: use IOMAP_DIO_NOSYNC
teach iomap_dio_rw() to suppress dsync
No need of likely/unlikely on calls of check_copy_size()
This adds the io_uring_short_write tracepoint to io_uring. A short write
is issued if not all pages that are required for a write are in the page
cache and the async buffered writes have to return EAGAIN.

This is actually an older issue, but we never used to hit the -EAGAIN
path before having done sb_start_write(). Make sure that we always call
kiocb_end_write() if we need to retry the write, so that we keep the
calls to sb_start_write() etc balanced.

This enables the async buffered writes for the filesystems that support
async buffered writes in io-uring. Buffered writes are enabled for
blocks that are already in the page cache or can be acquired with noio.

[axboe: adapt to 5.20 branch]
Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
If we're offloading requests directly to io-wq because IOSQE_ASYNC was
set in the sqe, we can miss hashing writes appropriately because we
haven't set REQ_F_ISREG yet. This can cause a performance regression
with buffered writes, as io-wq then no longer correctly serializes writes
to that file.
Ensure that we set the flags in io_prep_async_work(), which will cause
the io-wq work item to be hashed appropriately.

This optimisation has some built in assumptions that make it easy to
introduce bugs. It also does not have clear wins that make it worth keeping.

io_issue_sqe() from the io_uring core knows how to complete requests
based on the returned error code, we can delegate io_read()/io_write()
completion to it. Make kiocb_done() to return the right completion
code and propagate it.
