Provide a netfs write helper, netfs_perform_write() to buffer data to be
written in the pagecache and mark the modified folios dirty.
It will perform "streaming writes" for folios that aren't currently
resident, if possible, storing data in partially modified folios that are
marked dirty, but not uptodate. It will also tag pages as belonging to
fs-specific write groups if so directed by the filesystem.
This is derived from generic_perform_write(), but doesn't use
->write_begin() and ->write_end(), having that logic rolled in instead.

Make the refcounting of netfs_begin_read() easier to use by not eating the
caller's ref on the netfs_io_request it's given. This makes it easier to
use when we need to look in the request struct after.

Limit a subrequest to a maximum size and/or a maximum number of contiguous
physical regions. This permits, for instance, an subreq's iterator to be
limited to the number of DMA'able segments that a large RDMA request can
handle.

Add three iov_iter structs:
(1) Add an iov_iter (->iter) to the I/O request to describe the
unencrypted-side buffer.
(2) Add an iov_iter (->io_iter) to the I/O request to describe the
encrypted-side I/O buffer. This may be a different size to the buffer
in (1).
(3) Add an iov_iter (->io_iter) to the I/O subrequest to describe the part
of the I/O buffer for that subrequest.
This will allow future patches to point to a bounce buffer instead for
purposes of handling oversize writes, decryption (where we want to save the
encrypted data to the cache) and decompression.
These iov_iters persist for the lifetime of the (sub)request, and so can be
accessed multiple times without worrying about them being deallocated upon
return to the caller.
The network filesystem must appropriately advance the iterator before
terminating the request.

READ/WRITE proved to be actively confusing - the meanings are
"data destination, as used with read(2)" and "data source, as
used with write(2)", but people keep interpreting those as
"we read data from it" and "we write data to it", i.e. exactly
the wrong way.
Call them ITER_DEST and ITER_SOURCE - at least that is harder
to misinterpret...

netfslib has a number of places in which it performs iteration of an xarray
whilst being under the RCU read lock. It *should* call xas_retry() as the
first thing inside of the loop and do "continue" if it returns true in case
the xarray walker passed out a special value indicating that the walk needs
to be redone from the root[*].
Fix this by adding the missing retry checks.
[*] I wonder if this should be done inside xas_find(), xas_next_node() and
suchlike, but I'm told that's not an simple change to effect.
This can cause an oops like that below. Note the faulting address - this
is an internal value (|0x2) returned from xarray.

========
ver #2)
- Changed an unsigned int to a size_t to reduce the likelihood of an
overflow as per Willy's suggestion.
- Added an additional patch to fix the maths.
