[RFC PATCH 24/28] ceph: Use sendmsg(MSG_SPLICE_PAGES) rather than sendpage()

[David Howells]

Use sendmsg() and MSG_SPLICE_PAGES rather than sendpage in ceph when
transmitting data.  For the moment, this can only transmit one page at a
time because of the architecture of net/ceph/, but if
write_partial_message_data() can be given a bvec[] at a time by the
iteration code, this would allow pages to be sent in a batch.
