cifs: Build the RDMA SGE list directly from an iterator
In the depths of the cifs RDMA code, extract part of an iov iterator
directly into an SGE list without going through an intermediate
scatterlist.
Note that this doesn't support extraction from an IOBUF- or UBUF-type
iterator (ie. user-supplied buffer). The assumption is that the higher
layers will extract those to a BVEC-type iterator first and do whatever is
required to stop the pages from going away.
