[RFC PATCH 9/9] iov_iter: Add benchmarking kunit tests for UBUF/IOVEC

From: David Howells
Date: Thu Sep 14 2023 - 18:17:34 EST


Add kunit tests to benchmark 256MiB copies to a UBUF iterator and an IOVEC
iterator. This attaches a userspace VM with a mapped file in it
temporarily to the test thread.
