Add a variant of shmem_read() that takes a iosys_map pointer rather than a plain pointer as argument. It's mostly a copy __shmem_rw() but adapting the api and removing the write support since there's currently only need to use iosys_map as destination. Reworking __shmem_rw() to share the implementation was tempting, but finding a good balance between reuse and clarity pushed towards a little code duplication. Since the function is small, just add the similar function with a copy/paste/adapt approach. v2: Add an offset as argument and instead of using a map iterator, use the offset to keep track of where we are writing data to.

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.
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.
