Liu XiaodongandGreg Kroah-Hartman 066de07e02 block: ublk: check IO buffer based on flag need_get_data
[ Upstream commit 2f1e07dda1 ]

Currently, uring_cmd with UBLK_IO_FETCH_REQ or
UBLK_IO_COMMIT_AND_FETCH_REQ is always checked whether
userspace server has provided IO buffer even flag
UBLK_F_NEED_GET_DATA is configured.

This is a excessive check. If UBLK_F_NEED_GET_DATA is
configured, FETCH_RQ doesn't need to provide IO buffer;
COMMIT_AND_FETCH_REQ also doesn't need to do that if
the IO type is not READ.

Check ub_cmd->addr together with ublk_need_get_data()
and IO type in ublk_ch_uring_cmd().

With this fix, userspace server doesn't need to preserve
buffers for every ublk_io when flag UBLK_F_NEED_GET_DATA
is configured, in order to save memory.
