Jens Axboe cd65869512 io_uring: use iov_iter state save/restore helpers
Get rid of the need to do re-expand and revert on an iterator when we
encounter a short IO, or failure that warrants a retry. Use the new
state save/restore helpers instead.

We keep the iov_iter_state persistent across retries, if we need to
restart the read or write operation. If there's a pending retry, the
operation will always exit with the state correctly saved.

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.
