cifs: turn read_from_socket into a wrapper around a vectorized version
Eventually we'll want to allow cifsd to read data directly into the pagecache. In order to do that we'll need a routine that can take a kvec array and pass that directly to kernel_recvmsg. Unfortunately though, the kernel's recvmsg routines modify the kvec array that gets passed in, so we need to use a copy of the kvec array and refresh that copy on each pass through the loop.
