[RFC PATCH 4/4] netfs: Add a function to extract an iterator into a scatterlist

From: David Howells
Date: Thu Nov 17 2022 - 09:57:13 EST


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 ref taken on them.

If the iterator is BVEC-, KVEC- or XARRAY-type, no ref 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.
