From: Keith Busch <kbusch at kernel.org>

Handling passthrough metadata ("integrity") today introduces overhead
and complications that we can avoid if we just map user space addresses
directly. This patch series implements that, falling back to a kernel
bounce buffer if necessary.

v2->v3:

  Introduces a multi-page bvec iterator.

  Fix leaking pinned user pages (Kanchan)

  Fix final unpaired 'put' on user pages (Kanchan)

  Doesn't increase the size of 'struct bio_integrity_profile'; if the
  'copy_vec' pointer is needed, it gets appended to the existing bvec.

  Fix compiler warnings

  Fix compiler error for !CONFIG_BLK_INTEGRITY

Keith Busch (5):
  bvec: introduce multi-page bvec iterating
  block: bio-integrity: directly map user buffers
  nvme: use bio_integrity_map_user
  iouring: remove IORING_URING_CMD_POLLED
  io_uring: remove uring_cmd cookie
