It's extremely rare that we get unaligned requests that need to drop down to the data copy code path. However, the iov_iter is almost 5% of the mem used for the vhost_scsi_cmd. This patch has us allocate the iov_iter only when needed since it's not a perf path that uses the struct. This along with the patches that removed the duplicated fields on the vhost_scsd_cmd allow us to reduce mem use by 1 MB in mid size setups where we have 16 virtqueues and are doing 1024 cmds per queue.

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.
