Matus Kral 57ae840077 Linux 4.1 compat: use read_iter() / write_iter()
Linux 3.15 commit torvalds/linux@293bc98 introduced two new methods.
The ->read_iter() and ->write_iter() methods were designed to replace
the ->aio_read() and ->aio_write() interfaces.  Both interfaces were
preserved for several kernel releases in order to migrate all existing
consumers to the new interfaces.  But as of Linux 4.1 the legacy
interface has been retired and the ZFS code must be updated to use
the new interfaces.
