I don't understand the logic completely, but isn't it
safer to do 'goto wait_for_memory;' here if we happened
to hit this in the middle of the loop?
Well, the wait_for_memory pushes data, and could early return to user
space with short writes (non blocking IO). This would break things...
I see. Right. My only concern was about restarting the loop
and msg_data_left(), since it's really hard to follow iov_iter logic.
