Copy cifs's setup_aio_ctx_iter() and to lib/iov_iter.c and generalise it as
extract_iter_to_iter().  This allocates and sets up an array of bio_vecs
for all the page fragments in an I/O iterator and sets a second supplied
iterator to bvec-type pointing to the array.

This is can be used when setting up for a direct I/O or an asynchronous I/O
to set up a record of the page fragments that are going to contribute to
the buffer, paging them all in to prevent DIO->mmap loops and allowing the
original iterator to be deallocated (it may be on the stack of the caller).

Note that extract_iter_to_iter() doesn't actually need to make a separate
allocation for the page array.  It can place the page array at the end of
the bvec array storage, provided it traverses both arrays from the 0th
element forwards.
