This isn't strictly needed in terms of correctness, but it does allow
polling to know if the bio has been put already by a different task
and hence avoid polling something that we don't need to.

Pull cifs client updates from Steve French:
 "The largest subset of this is from David Howells et al: making the
  cifs/smb3 driver pass iov_iters down to the lowest layers, directly to
  the network transport rather than passing lists of pages around,
  helping multiple areas:

   - Pin user pages, thereby fixing the race between concurrent DIO read
     and fork, where the pages containing the DIO read buffer may end up
     belonging to the child process and not the parent - with the result
     that the parent might not see the retrieved data.

   - cifs shouldn't take refs on pages extracted from non-user-backed
     iterators (eg. KVEC). With these changes, cifs will apply the
     appropriate cleanup.

   - Making it easier to transition to using folios in cifs rather than
     pages by dealing with them through BVEC and XARRAY iterators.

   - Allowing cifs to use the new splice function

  The remainder are:

   - fixes for stable, including various fixes for uninitialized memory,
     wrong length field causing mount issue to very old servers,
     important directory lease fixes and reconnect fixes

   - cleanups (unused code removal, change one element array usage, and
     a change form strtobool to kstrtobool, and Kconfig cleanups)

   - SMBDIRECT (RDMA) fixes including iov_iter integration and UAF fixes

   - reconnect fixes

   - multichannel fixes, including improving channel allocation (to
     least used channel)

   - remove the last use of lock_page_killable by moving to
     folio_lock_killable"

Define flags to qualify page extraction to pass into iov_iter_*_pages*()
rather than passing in FOLL_* flags.

For now only a flag to allow peer-to-peer DMA is supported.
