Use a single ITER_XARRAY iterator to describe the portion of a file to be transmitted to the server rather than generating a series of small ITER_BVEC iterators on the fly. This will make it easier to implement AIO in afs. In theory we could maybe use one giant ITER_BVEC, but that means potentially allocating a huge array of bio_vec structs (max 256 per page) when in fact the pagecache already has a structure listing all the relevant pages (radix_tree/xarray) that can be walked over.
