[PATCH 3/9] fs: explicitly check for CHECK_IOVEC_ONLY in rw_copy_check_uvector

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
Date: 2020-09-18 12:46:14
Also in: io-uring, keyrings, linux-arch, linux-arm-kernel, linux-block, linux-fsdevel, linux-mips, linux-mm, linux-s390, linux-scsi, linux-security-module, lkml, netdev, sparclinux
Subsystem: filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), the rest · Maintainers: Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Linus Torvalds

Explicitly check for the magic value insted of implicitly relying on
its number representation.
