iov_iter_advance() is heavily used, but implemented through generic
iteration. As bvecs have a specifically crafted advance() function, i.e.
bvec_iter_advance(), which is faster and slimmer, use it instead.

I like the idea, but whu not avoid the on-stack bvec_iter and just
open code this entirely using a new helper?  E.g.

static void bio_iov_iter_advance(struct iov_iter *i, size_t bytes)
{
	unsigned int cnt;

	i->count -= bytes;

	bytes += i->iov_offset;
	for (cnt = 0; bytes && bytes >= i->bvec[cnt].bv_len; cnt++)
		bytes -= i->bvec[cnt].bv_len;
	i->iov_offset = bytes;

	i->bvec += cnt;
	i->nr_segs -= cnt;
}

It's inlined and the on-stack iter is completely optimised out. Frankly,
I'd rather not open-code bvec_iter_advance(), at least for this chunk to
be findable from bvec.h, e.g. grep bvec_iter and bvec_for_each. Though,
I don't like myself that preamble/postamble.

Ok.  I still think we at least want a separate helper instead of
bloating the main iov_iter_advance.

I agree on that, just haven't got back to it yet.
