Fix the loop check in netfs_extract_user_to_sg() for extraction from
user-backed iterators to do the body if npages > 0, not if npages < 0
(which it can never be).
This isn't currently used by cifs, which only ever extracts data from BVEC,
KVEC and XARRAY iterators at this level, user-backed iterators having being
decanted into BVEC iterators at a higher level to accommodate the work
being done in a kernel thread.
Found by smatch:
fs/netfs/iterator.c:139 netfs_extract_user_to_sg() warn: unsigned 'npages' is never less than zero.

Merge tag '6.3-rc-smb3-client-fixes' of git://git.samba.org/sfrench/cifs-2.6
Pull cifs client updates from Steve French:
"The largest subset of this is from David Howells et al: making the
cifs/smb3 driver pass iov_iters down to the lowest layers, directly to
the network transport rather than passing lists of pages around,
helping multiple areas:
- Pin user pages, thereby fixing the race between concurrent DIO read
and fork, where the pages containing the DIO read buffer may end up
belonging to the child process and not the parent - with the result
that the parent might not see the retrieved data.
- cifs shouldn't take refs on pages extracted from non-user-backed
iterators (eg. KVEC). With these changes, cifs will apply the
appropriate cleanup.
- Making it easier to transition to using folios in cifs rather than
pages by dealing with them through BVEC and XARRAY iterators.
- Allowing cifs to use the new splice function
The remainder are:
- fixes for stable, including various fixes for uninitialized memory,
wrong length field causing mount issue to very old servers,
important directory lease fixes and reconnect fixes
- cleanups (unused code removal, change one element array usage, and
a change form strtobool to kstrtobool, and Kconfig cleanups)
- SMBDIRECT (RDMA) fixes including iov_iter integration and UAF fixes
- reconnect fixes
- multichannel fixes, including improving channel allocation (to
least used channel)
- remove the last use of lock_page_killable by moving to
folio_lock_killable"

Provide a function for filling in a scatterlist from the list of pages
contained in an iterator.
If the iterator is UBUF- or IOBUF-type, the pages have a pin taken on them
(as FOLL_PIN).
If the iterator is BVEC-, KVEC- or XARRAY-type, no pin is taken on the
pages and it is left to the caller to manage their lifetime. It cannot be
assumed that a ref can be validly taken, particularly in the case of a KVEC
iterator.

Add a function to extract the pages from a user-space supplied iterator
(UBUF- or IOVEC-type) into a BVEC-type iterator, retaining the pages by
getting a pin on them (as FOLL_PIN) as we go.
This is useful in three situations:
(1) A userspace thread may have a sibling that unmaps or remaps the
process's VM during the operation, changing the assignment of the
pages and potentially causing an error. Retaining the pages keeps
some pages around, even if this occurs; futher, we find out at the
point of extraction if EFAULT is going to be incurred.
(2) Pages might get swapped out/discarded if not retained, so we want to
retain them to avoid the reload causing a deadlock due to a DIO
from/to an mmapped region on the same file.
(3) The iterator may get passed to sendmsg() by the filesystem. If a
fault occurs, we may get a short write to a TCP stream that's then
tricky to recover from.
We don't deal with other types of iterator here, leaving it to other
mechanisms to retain the pages (eg. PG_locked, PG_writeback and the pipe
lock).
