iov_iter: lift memzero_page() to highmem.h
Patch series "btrfs: Convert kmap/memset/kunmap to memzero_user()". Lifting memzero_user(), convert it to kmap_local_page() and then use it in btrfs. This patch (of 3): memzero_page() can replace the kmap/memset/kunmap pattern in other places in the code. While zero_user() has the same interface it is not the same call and its use should be limited and some of those calls may be better converted from zero_user() to memzero_page().[1] But that is not addressed in this series. Lift memzero_page() to highmem.

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.
