As a result, I think that it is not easy to switch to use the iov_iter. Because, the design of vhost and vringh is different. The iov_iter has vring desc info and meta data of transfer method. The vhost provides generic transfer function for the iov_iter. In constrast, vringh_iov just has vring desc info. The vringh provides transfer functions for each methods. In the future, it is better to use common data structure and APIs between vhost and vringh (or merge completely), but it requires a lot of changes, so I'd like to just organize data structure in vringh as a first step in this patch.
