[PATCH v2 4/5] swapfile: use ->read_iter and ->write_iter

[Omar Sandoval <osandov@osandov.com>]

Using ->direct_IO and ->readpage for the generic swap file
infrastructure requires all sorts of nasty workarounds. ->readpage
implementations don't play nicely with swap cache pages, and ->direct_IO
implementations have different locking conventions for every filesystem.
Instead, use ->read_iter/->write_iter with an ITER_BVEC and let the
filesystem take care of it. This will also allow us to easily transition
to kernel AIO if that gets merged in the future.
