[PATCH v6 06/13] iov_iter: Derive user-backedness from the iterator type

[David Howells]

Use the iterator type to determine whether an iterator is user-backed or
not rather than using a special flag for it.  Now that ITER_UBUF and
ITER_IOVEC are 0 and 1, they can be checked with a single comparison.
