[PATCH v3] iov_iter: don't require contiguous pages in iov_iter_extract_bvec_pages

[Christoph Hellwig]

The iov_iter_extract_pages interface allows to return physically
discontiguous pages, as long as all but the first and last page
in the array are page aligned and page size.  Rewrite
iov_iter_extract_bvec_pages to take advantage of that instead of only
returning ranges of physically contiguous pages.
