The zerocopy path ultimately calls iov_iter_get_pages, which defines the
step function for ITER_KVECs as simply, return -EFAULT. Taking the
non-zerocopy path for ITER_KVECs avoids the unnecessary fallback.
See https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20150401023311.GL29656@ZenIV.linux.org.uk/T/#u
for a discussion of why zerocopy for vmalloc data is not a good idea.
Discovered while testing NBD traffic encrypted with ktls.
Fixes: c46234ebb4 ("tls: RX path for ktls")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
