David Howells 3d14ec1fe6 iov_iter: Four fixes for ITER_XARRAY
Fix four things[1] in the patch that adds ITER_XARRAY[2]:

 (1) Remove the address_space struct predeclaration.  This is a holdover
     from when it was ITER_MAPPING.

 (2) Fix _copy_mc_to_iter() so that the xarray segment updates count and
     iov_offset in the iterator before returning.

 (3) Fix iov_iter_alignment() to not loop in the xarray case.  Because the
     middle pages are all whole pages, only the end pages need be
     considered - and this can be reduced to just looking at the start
     position in the xarray and the iteration size.

 (4) Fix iov_iter_advance() to limit the size of the advance to no more
     than the remaining iteration size.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
