Looking at the version string, this is from net-next before the merger with
Linus's tree after the point where Linus had merged:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux-block.git/log/?h=for-6.5/splice
> extract_iter_to_sg(3) unsupported
This is ITER_PIPE (type 3) before is removed by:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=3fc40265ae2b48a7475c41c5c0b256374c419f4b
From that point on ITER_XARRAY is type 3 and there's a case for that in
extract_iter_to_sg().
So the fix for this is to merge it with the splice tree - which Linus has
already done, so this should be fixed upstream.
With hindsight, I should've used iov_iter_get_pages*() rather than
iov_iter_extract_pages() and extract_iter_to_sg() in the networking code
recvmsg() path until after the merge.
