H A Dublk_cmd.h62fe99ce Fri May 19 01:50:29 CDT 2023 Ming Lei <ming.lei@redhat.com> ublk: add read()/write() support for ublk char device

Support pread()/pwrite() on ublk char device for reading/writing request
io buffer, so data copy between io request buffer and userspace buffer
can be moved to ublk server from ublk driver. Then UBLK_F_NEED_GET_DATA
becomes not necessary, so ublk server can allocate buffer without one
extra round uring command communication for userspace to provide buffer.

IO buffer can be located by iocb->ki_pos which encodes buffer offset, io
tag and queue id info, and type of iocb->ki_pos is u64, so it is big
enough for holding reasonable queue depth, nr_queues and max io buffer
size.
