iov_iter: saner checks on copyin/copyout
* might_fault() is better checked in caller (and e.g. fault-in + kmap_atomic
codepath also needs might_fault() coverage)
* we have already done object size checks
* we have *NOT* done access_ok() recently enough; we rely upon the
iovec array having passed sanity checks back when it had been created
and not nothing having buggered it since. However, that's very much
non-local, so we'd better recheck that.
So the thing we want does not match anything in uaccess - we need
access_ok + kasan checks + raw copy without any zeroing. Just define
such helpers and use them here.
