[RFC PATCH 2/9] vringh: remove vringh_iov and unite to vringh_kiov

From: Shunsuke Mie
Date: Mon Dec 26 2022 - 21:25:55 EST


struct vringh_iov is defined to hold userland addresses. However, to use
common function, __vring_iov, finally the vringh_iov converts to the
vringh_kiov with simple cast. It includes compile time check code to make
sure it can be cast correctly.

To simplify the code, this patch removes the struct vringh_iov and unifies
APIs to struct vringh_kiov.
