block: make blk_rq_map_user take a NULL user-space buffer



This patch changes blk_rq_map_user to accept a NULL user-space buffer
with a READ command if rq_map_data is not NULL. Thus a caller can pass
page frames to lk_rq_map_user to just set up a request and bios with
page frames propely. bio_uncopy_user (called via blk_rq_unmap_user)
doesn't copy data to user space with such request.
