[PATCH 01/15] bvec: add a bvec_virt helper

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
Date: 2021-08-04 09:59:43
Also in: ceph-devel, dm-devel, linux-bcache, linux-block, linux-nvme, linux-raid, linux-s390, linux-scsi, virtualization
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

Add a helper to get the virtual address for a bvec.  This avoids that
all callers need to know about the page + offset representation.
