iov_iter: Mark copy_compat_iovec_from_user() noinline



After commit 6376ce56feb6 ("iov_iter: import single vector iovecs as
ITER_UBUF"), GCC does an inter-procedural compiler optimization which
moves the user_access_begin() out of copy_compat_iovec_from_user() and
into its callers:

  lib/iov_iter.o: warning: objtool: .altinstr_replacement+0x0: redundant UACCESS disable
  lib/iov_iter.o: warning: objtool: iovec_from_user.part.0+0xc7: call to copy_compat_iovec_from_user.part.0() with UACCESS enabled
  lib/iov_iter.o: warning: objtool: __import_iovec+0x21d: call to copy_compat_iovec_from_user.part.0() with UACCESS enabled

Enforce the "no UACCESS enable across function boundaries" rule by
disabling cloning for copy_compat_iovec_from_user().

Fixes: 6376ce56feb6 ("iov_iter: import single vector iovecs as ITER_UBUF")
