Hi Al and Linus (and Stephen, see below),

as part of removing set_fs entirely (for which I have a working
prototype), we need to stop calling ->read and ->write with kernel
pointers under set_fs.

This removes the option to call ->read and ->write with kernel pointers
entirely. The replacements are the existing ->read_iter and ->write_iter
methods which cope with kvecs and kernel pointers just fine and are
already used by many instances including all the "real" file systems.

A git branch is available here:

git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc.git set_fs-rw

Gitweb:

http://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc.git/shortlog/refs/heads/set_fs-rw

Given that this has been out and cooking for a while, is there a chance to
add the above as a temp branch to linux-next to get a little more exposure
until Al reviews it and (hopefully) picks it up?

Changes since v2:
- merged with the prep series
- simplify warn_unsupported()
- make splice do the right thing on files with the iter ops by
default instead of requiring manual setup

Changes since v1:
- drop the read_uptr/write_uptr methods
- pick up a bunch of sysctl fixes and iter conversion from Matthew Wilcox
