H A Dblk-map.c403b6fb8 Mon May 22 15:57:44 CDT 2023 David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> block: convert bio_map_user_iov to use iov_iter_extract_pages

This will pin pages or leave them unaltered rather than getting a ref on
them as appropriate to the iterator.

The pages need to be pinned for DIO rather than having refs taken on them
to prevent VM copy-on-write from malfunctioning during a concurrent fork()
(the result of the I/O could otherwise end up being visible to/affected by
the child process).
