886a391150 new primitive: iov_iter_alignment()
returns the value aligned as badly as the worst remaining segment
in iov_iter is.  Use instead of open-coded equivalents.

e7c24607b5 kill iov_iter_copy_from_user()
all callers can use copy_page_from_iter() and it actually simplifies
them.

6e58e79db8 introduce copy_page_to_iter, kill loop over iovec in generic_file_aio_read()
generic_file_aio_read() was looping over the target iovec, with loop over
(source) pages nested inside that.  Just set an iov_iter up and pass *that*
to do_generic_file_aio_read().  With copy_page_to_iter() doing all work
of mapping and copying a page to iovec and advancing iov_iter.

Switch shmem_file_aio_read() to the same and kill file_read_actor(), while
we are at it.

d2f83e9078 Hoist memcpy_fromiovec/memcpy_toiovec into lib/
ERROR: "memcpy_fromiovec" [drivers/vhost/vhost_scsi.ko] undefined!

That function is only present with CONFIG_NET.  Turns out that
crypto/algif_skcipher.c also uses that outside net, but it actually
needs sockets anyway.

In addition, commit 6d4f0139d6 added
CONFIG_NET dependency to CONFIG_VMCI for memcpy_toiovec, so hoist
that function and revert that commit too.

socket.h already includes uio.h, so no callers need updating; trying
only broke things fo x86_64 randconfig (thanks Fengguang!).

812ed032cd uio: mark uio.h functions __KERNEL__ only
To avoid userspace build failures such as:

.../linux/uio.h:37: error: expected `=', `,', `;', `asm' or `__attribute__' before `iov_length'
.../linux/uio.h:47: error: expected declaration specifiers or `...' before `size_t'

move uio functions inside a __KERNEL__ block.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
