iov_iter: Introduce nofault flag to disable page faults
Introduce a new nofault flag to indicate to iov_iter_get_pages not to fault in user pages. This is implemented by passing the FOLL_NOFAULT flag to get_user_pages, which causes get_user_pages to fail when it would otherwise fault in a page. We'll use the ->nofault flag to prevent iomap_dio_rw from faulting in pages when page faults are not allowed. Signed-off-by: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruenba@redhat.com>
