When using kernel registered bvec fixed buffers, the "address" is
actually the offset into the bvec rather than userspace address.
Therefore it can be 0.
We can skip checking whether the address is NULL before mapping
uring_cmd data. Bad userspace address will be handled properly later when
the user buffer is imported.
With this patch, we will be able to use the kernel registered bvec fixed
buffers in io_uring NVMe passthru with ublk zero-copy support in
