block: bio-integrity: directly map user buffers
Passthrough commands that utilize metadata currently need to bounce the
user space buffer through the kernel. Add support for mapping user space
directly so that we can avoid this costly overhead. This is similar to
how the normal bio data payload utilizes user addresses with
bio_map_user_iov().
If the user address can't directly be used for reason, like too many
segments or address unalignement, fallback to a copy of the user vec
while keeping the user address pinned for the IO duration so that it
can safely be copied on completion in any process context.
