Hi Jens,

Could you consider pulling this patchset into the block tree?  I think that
Al's fears wrt to pinned pages being removed from page tables causing deadlock
have been answered.  Granted, there is still the issue of how to handle
vmsplice and a bunch of other places to fix, not least skbuff handling.

I also have patches to fix cifs in a separate branch that I would also like to
push in this merge window - and that requires the first two patches from this
series also, so would it be possible for you to merge at least those two
rather than manually applying them?

I've pulled this into a separate branch, but based on the block branch,
for-6.3/iov-extract. It's added to for-next as well.
