    block: introduce struct rq_map_data to use reserved pages · 152e283f

    This patch introduces struct rq_map_data to enable bio_copy_use_iov()
    use reserved pages.
    
    Currently, bio_copy_user_iov allocates bounce pages but
    drivers/scsi/sg.c wants to allocate pages by itself and use
    them. struct rq_map_data can be used to pass allocated pages to
    bio_copy_user_iov.
    
    The current users of bio_copy_user_iov simply passes NULL (they don't
    want to use pre-allocated pages).
