iov_iter is a universal interface to copy the data chunk from/to user-space and kernel in a unified manner. This API can fit for ALSA PCM copy ops, too; we had to split to copy_user and copy_kernel in the past, and those can be unified to a single ops with iov_iter. This patch adds a new PCM copy ops that passes iov_iter for copying both kernel and user-space in the same way. This patch touches only the ALSA PCM core part, and the actual users will be replaced in the following patches. The expansion of iov_iter is done in the PCM core right before calling each copy callback. It's a bit suboptimal, but I took this now as it's the most straightforward replacement. The more conversion to iov_iter in the caller side is a TODO for future. As of now, the old copy_user and copy_kernel ops are still kept. Once after all users are converted, we'll drop the old copy_user and copy_kernel ops, too.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
