[PATCH 5.10 197/199] kernfs: implement ->write_iter

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jan 25 2021 - 14:29:45 EST


From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx>

commit cc099e0b399889c6485c88368b19824b087c9f8c upstream.

Switch kernfs to implement the write_iter method instead of plain old
write to prepare to supporting splice and sendfile again.
