When using kernel registered bvec fixed buffers, the "address" is actually the offset into the bvec rather than userspace address. Therefore it can be 0. We can skip checking whether the address is NULL before mapping uring_cmd data. Bad userspace address will be handled properly later when the user buffer is imported. With this patch, we will be able to use the kernel registered bvec fixed buffers in io_uring NVMe passthru with ublk zero-copy support.

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 reStructuredText 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.
