[PATCH] iov_iter: streamline iovec/bvec alignment iteration

[Jens Axboe]

Rewrite iov_iter_aligned_iovec() and iov_iter_aligned_bvec() to be both
easier to read, and also significantly more compact in terms of
generated code. This saves 178 bytes of text on x86-64 for me (with
clang-18) and 136 bytes on arm64 (with gcc-13).

In profiles, also saves a bit of time as well for the same workload:

     0.81%     -0.18%  [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] iov_iter_aligned_bvec
     0.48%     -0.09%  [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] iov_iter_is_aligned

which is a nice side benefit as well.
